Agrivoltaics: the perfect synergy between agriculture and solar energy
In a world undergoing an energy transition, agrivoltaics is emerging as an innovative and harmonious solution, enabling the reconciliation of agricultural production and the generation of clean solar energy. At the heart of this approach, Z Solar leverages its expertise and know-how to support you in the design and implementation of your agrivoltaic project, thus offering sustainable, profitable, and environmentally friendly solutions.
What is agrivoltaics?
Agrivoltaics, or agrivoltaics, involves installing photovoltaic panels above crops to create a beneficial interaction between agricultural production and green electricity generation. Unlike ground-mounted solar installations, this approach aims to preserve, or even improve, agricultural yields while generating renewable energy.
The advantages of agrivoltaics are:
• Improvement of agricultural yield, particularly in regions subject to water stress.
• Reduction in water consumption, due to the reduction in evapotranspiration.
• Increased agricultural production, favored by a more stable microclimate.
• Protection of crops against climatic hazards (high heat, hail, frost).
This innovation thus responds to energy and agricultural challenges by combining ecological performance and sustainability.
Valorization of agricultural land
Agrivoltaics is integrated directly into the plots, without sacrificing cultivable areas.
Crop protection
Photovoltaic panels protect against harsh weather such as hail and heavy rain, while mitigating the effects of excessive sunlight.
They thus strengthen the resilience of farms in the face of climatic hazards.
Clean energy production
Solar electricity reduces dependence on fossil fuels, promoting greater energy independence and lasting economic and environmental stability.
