Agrivoltaic Solution
insolagrin is an innovative agrivoltaic solution, where translucent solar modules replace the plastic tunnels usually used in agriculture. It allows to produce solar energy and protect crops, enabling dual use of land. More than a solar installation, insolagrin is thus a new tool for farmers. The light transmission control allows farmers to optimise crop growth over seasons and climate changes.
The optical layer is piloted continuously to deliver precise amounts of light to the crops
Crops are fully protected from rain, snow or hail. Rainwater can be collected by gutters for irrigation
The openings on the structure enable effective ventilation for optimal temperature & humidity conditions.
The optical layer deploys automatically at night to keep the crops warm and protect them against frost
The optical layer shades the crops to keep them cooler during heat waves and reduce water consumption
insolagrin solution is based on three pillars, with a smart integration of hardware and software components
Semi – transparent PV modules with bifacial solar cells produce solar electricity whilst protecting the crops. Sensors continuously measure the climate conditions and feed information to the piloting & control system. When needed the shading layer is deployed for additional shade and a boost to the electricity production.
insolagrin can be piloted automatically or manually through our web interface.
