Combine agriculture with sustainable energy production

Agriculture and solar power, together in the fight against the climate crisis.

Agri-PV combines solar panels with agricultural activity on the same land, optimising land use and generating renewable energy without affecting agricultural production.

This benefits both local communities and the farmers, offering an additional source of income and reducing the environmental impact.

In addition, we include rainwater systems in the design of our facilities. These structures are integrated into the photovoltaic modules and allow the accumulated water to be used for irrigation, which prevents the risk of drought.

Why install an Agri-PV system?

Increase the economic value of land and land use efficiency

Encourage job creation in rural areas

Improve biodiversity

Increases the protection of crops against extreme weather conditions

Climate protection for crops and animals

Water savings: Reduces evapotranspiration by providing shade

Stable and diversified income for the farmer

Improved working conditions and microclimate creates a cooler environment for both crops and farmers, increasing comfort and productivity.

We develop Agri-PV installations

We combine wide global experience in solar power projects with in-depth knowledge of the Spanish agricultural and energy sectors. This combination gives us a competitive advantage at every stage of the project:

  • Analysis of land requirements

  • Feasibility studies

  • Project planning

  • Obtaining permits

  • Financing

  • Operation and maintenance

  • Irrigation

Thanks to our different solutions, we are able to adapt agriculture to climate change.

Photovoltaics (PV) amongst crops

This technique is compatible with arable crops such as cereal and fodder.

Advantages

  • Protection against wind.

  • Decrease in land erosion.

  • Less water required for the crops thanks to the shade provided by the panels.

  • Rainwater collection through the modules.

  • Maintenance of the ecosystems without changing land use.

  • More efficient land use.

  • Diversification of the farmer’s income, helping financial security.
