agrovoltaic energy increases the efficiency of crops and reduces their environmental impact, among other benefits.
The installation of photovoltaic panels on land used for agriculture or livestock farming provides these spaces with a dual functionality: agricultural or livestock production and electricity generation from solar energy, a renewable, infinite and environmentally friendly source. Solar panels keep the crops under them protected by reducing evaporation, conserving moisture and reducing the water footprint of farms. In addition, the combined use of land in an agrovoltaic installation can increase its efficiency by up to 186%, according to data from the Fraunhofer Institute.

a photovoltaic installation will make your livestock farm more efficient, more competitive and more sustainable. In addition, in the case of a farm, the installation of solar panels can benefit from a 4% corporate tax deduction and obtain a refund of 100% of the input VAT on the total investment, according to POWEN.
