Why Agrivoltaics?

Triple Win: Energy, Agriculture & Environment

Agrivoltaic systems create powerful synergies that benefit farmers, communities, and the planet

Land Use Efficiency & Economics

Dual Revenue Stream

Earn from both crop sales and electricity generation, creating economic resilience and farm modernization incentives

Land Equivalent Ratio 1.0-3.0

Produces more combined output than if agriculture and solar were conducted separately on different land

Land Scarcity Solution

Directly addresses the growing conflict between agricultural land use and renewable energy development

Crop & Water Benefits

Climate Resilience

Partial shade reduces heat stress for crops and livestock (e.g., cows seeking shelter under canopies during heatwaves)

Water Conservation

Shading lowers soil temperature and dramatically reduces evaporation—Water Use Efficiency increases up to 300%

Yield Increases

Leafy greens, berries, and pasture grass often yield more in moderated microclimate, especially in arid regions

Energy & Environmental

Improved Panel Efficiency

Cooler microclimate prevents panel overheating, improving PV efficiency and electricity output in hot weather

Ecosystem Services

Pollinator-friendly native vegetation between panels enhances local biodiversity critical for agricultural productivity

Carbon Reduction

Clean energy generation while maintaining productive agricultural land use reduces overall carbon footprint

How It Works

Creating the Perfect Microclimate

Agrivoltaic systems succeed by optimizing the interaction between solar panels, crops, and environmental conditions

Optimal
Shading

Synergistic System Design

The magic of agrivoltaics lies in the favorable microclimate created beneath and around the solar panels. This controlled environment benefits both energy production and agricultural yields through carefully balanced shade, temperature, and moisture levels.

1

Panel Positioning

Elevated solar panels are strategically positioned to allow optimal sunlight for both energy capture and crop photosynthesis

2

Microclimate Creation

Panels create partial shade that moderates temperature extremes, reduces wind speed, and minimizes water evaporation

3

Symbiotic Benefits

Crops cool the panels, improving electrical efficiency, while panels protect crops from extreme weather and reduce irrigation needs

4

Biodiversity Enhancement

Native pollinator habitats between rows create ecosystem services that boost agricultural productivity

Ideal Crops for Agrivoltaic Systems

🥬

Leafy Greens

Lettuce, spinach, kale thrive in partial shade

🫐

Berries

Blueberries, raspberries benefit from moderated climate

🌾

Pasture Grass

Excellent for livestock grazing systems

🌿

Herbs

Basil, cilantro, parsley grow well with shade

Crop Selection Matters

The best crops for agrivoltaics are shade-tolerant species that benefit from reduced heat stress and water conservation. Our team helps you select the optimal crop mix for your location, climate, and market conditions.

Real-World Applications

Agrivoltaics in Action

From small farms to large-scale operations, agrivoltaics is transforming how we think about land use

Diverse Implementation Models

Agrivoltaic systems can be tailored to various agricultural contexts, from intensive vegetable production to extensive livestock grazing operations.

Crop Production Systems

Elevated panels above row crops, vegetables, and specialty crops with optimized spacing for equipment access

Livestock Integration

Sheep, cattle, and poultry grazing beneath panels while benefiting from shade and weather protection

Orchard & Vineyard Systems

Strategic panel placement in orchards and vineyards to protect fruit crops from extreme weather events
