Agrivoltaics offer the opportunity for solar developers and farmers to maximize land value through dual use applications that support both clean energy development and agricultural productivity. However, realizing these benefits requires thoughtful planning and collaboration from the earliest stages of product development. In this session, panelists will discuss the economic and operational realities involved in developing and running agrivoltaics facilities. What factors help create a favorable environment for agrivoltaic projects? What can developers do to make sure projects are set up for success? Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the lessons that can be learned from working with agricultural communities and promoting land stewardship.
