At BayWa r.e., agriculture is woven into our DNA
Harvesting the synergies of two sectors with Agri-PV
Agriculture and solar power: Together for our planet
Agri-PV combines food and sustainable energy production in the same area, without harming a farm’s production. BayWa r.e. are committed to preserving our natural resources and protecting soil quality.
We’re working to make agriculture more sustainable, helping adept to the effects of climate change and reduce human impact on our environment. To achieve this, we’re currently operating pilot projects in Asia and all over the world. We collaborate with farmers, landowners, chambers of agriculture and universities to effect change.
An Agri-PV system offers several advantages for your farmland:
Protecting crops from the climate
Agri-PV solar panels protect crops from extreme weather. Because the panels are transparent, there’s no interference with plant growth.
