Energy transition and landscape are often considered as zero-sum game: progress for the former equals (perceived) losses for the latter. These perceived losses stem from the transformation of familiar and cherished landscapes. Wind turbines, solar fields and other energy technologies change landscapes, driven by (inter)national energy transition targets to mitigate climate change. Landscapes have specific physical characteristics and are interpreted and experienced differently by people. Especially in areas with high population density, the implications of landscape transformation caused by the energy transition may therefore be severe. Accordingly, landscape is a key arena for the energy transition where the interests, values and concerns of local stakeholders and society at large meet. This arena encompasses diverse stakeholders: local inhabitants, energy cooperatives, NGOs, industry, grid operators, policy makers, decision makers and researchers.Many of these agents disregard or have a limited view on the concept of 'landscape'.'Landscape' is often disregarded in setting energy targets, selecting sites and designing renewable energy projects. Instead, the focus lies on technological performance and cost-efficiency, and societal considerations with regard to landscape are ignored.When 'landscape' is present in the siting and design of renewable energy projects, it is often considered as scenery. Consequently, evaluation of landscape quality of proposals is limited to the effects of energy infrastructure on viewsheds. This overemphasis on the visual aspect of landscape leads to rejecting the proposal or taking interventions that focus on reducing visibility without considering the characteristics of the host landscape. Furthermore, landscape is frequently considered to be in a stable-state. As a result, the current state of the landscape remains unquestioned and is used as the reference point for any potential change. This overemphasis on the present landscape leads to pushing the challenge of the energy transition to communities living somewhere else or in the future.The disregard of landscape and the limited, conventional understanding of landscape disrupts the continuity of the energy transition and has negative consequences for the quality of our landscapes.As a result, both scholars and society at large start to call for an energy transition that includes 'landscape' more prominently in the processes of defining energy targets, designing renewable energy projects and developing energy policies. Physical landscapes start to emerge that are not merely optimized according to technological or economic parameters, but reflect physical landscape characteristics and societal considerations. Examples are multi-purpose solar power plants and 'solar landscapes'. Multi-purpose solar power plants aim to achieve objectives in addition to electricity production such as food production, improving ecological qualities or enabling recreational activities. Key to the concept of 'solar landscapes' is the re-configuring of PV patterns and including agricultural or recreation functions in relationship to characteristics of the existing landscape, or creating new, distinct patterns.Previous research primarily focused on energy technologiesinstead of energy landscapes: technology and landscape arecommonly considered to be separate entities. As early as 1958,British landscape architect Sylvia Crowe advocated in The Power ofLandscape an alternative approach: to start designing 'completelandscapes', instead of mitigating inertia between technologyand landscape.
