Agrivoltaics is the colocation of agriculture and renewable energy production from photovoltaics (solar panels) on the same plot of land. Across SGDE our team studies and implements agrivoltaic systems to create resilient food, energy, and water solutions that address the simultaneous needs of farmers, community members, and other stakeholder groups. We scale this work from local test plots to global partnerships, building a data-driven roadmap for a sustainable future.
