Agrivoltaics is the combined use of solar panels and agriculture under the panels that together use less energy and produce more crops. It can also provide shade for livestock.
Agrivoltaics refers to any type of farming or crop cultivation that occurs underneath or around solar panels. Crops can thrive under solar panels since they protect from the harsh sun.
Can I grow crops under existing solar installations, or do I need a special setup? While crops can be grown under some existing solar installations, purpose-built agrivoltaic systems
Certain crops thrive in environments with solar panels, with studies showing improved growth and reduced watering needs when plants are grown beneath elevated panels or on

Pollinators—such as bees, butterflies, and other insects—are critical to the success of about 35 percent of global food crop production. Learn about the benefits of establishing pollinator
Agrivoltaics is the combination of agricultural production (which converts sunlight to food) with solar photovoltaic technology (which converts sunlight directly into electricity). The practice...
Yes, plants need sunlight, but some need less than others, and indeed get stressed by too many photons. Shading those crops means they will require less water, which rapidly evaporates
Not all crops perform equally; some plants thrive unequally under these conditions, while others may not perform as well. Below are some recommended crop families for agrivoltaic projects.
To date, the most common plans for vegetation management under solar arrays are mechanical control (mowing), grazing sheep, and pollinator habitat, or a combination of these three.
