Agrivoltaics increases land productivity, improves animal welfare
New research from the United States has shown the numerous advantages of combining lamb grazing with solar power production. The researchers found, in particular, that the overall return from grazing was the same in both solar pastures and open pasture fields with no PV panels.
Austrian agrivoltaic project includes sheep farming
Maxsolar is building a ground-mounted, 11.5 MW solar plant near Wien where 150 Jura will graze.
Special PV plant design for livestock in Taiwan
Taipower is experimenting with PV installations on grazing land for cattle, with the support of the Taiwan Council of Agriculture. The modules have been installed at a height of 3 meters, so the cows can graze beneath them.
