Market Challenge
In many places, agricultural lands are the only viable solution for large-scale ground-mounted solar energy projects. Specifically, AgriPV on top of greenhouses is an attractive option because the solar tracker doesn’t have to “compete” for solar energy with the crops.
Solution
We have designed our greenhouse trackers to be installed on top of the greenhouse gutters and thus fully utilize the existing greenhouse structure. It increases energy production relative to fix-tilt solutions (20-25%). To fit properly on the greenhouse, the system is lightweight (20%-30% lighter), which also translates to lower LCOE, higher IRR and shorter breakeven period.
