Problem
Farmers face increasing pressure to maximize land use for both food production and renewable energy generation. Traditional solar farms can displace agricultural land, while conventional farming practices may not fully utilize available sunlight.
Solution
Feld.energy develops agrivoltaic systems that enable the simultaneous use of land for both agriculture and solar power generation. Their solutions allow farmers to cultivate crops or raise livestock while producing renewable energy, optimizing land efficiency and creating new revenue streams. The systems provide benefits such as protection from wind erosion, excessive sun exposure, and dehydration, while also offering tax advantages and subsidies. Feld.energy offers both tracked and vertical agrivoltaic systems, adapting to different agricultural needs and environmental conditions.
Target Audience
Feld.energy's primary customers are farmers, landowners, and municipalities seeking to integrate renewable energy production with agricultural activities.
