SolarPower Europe launches the first-of-its-kind digital map showcasing agrisolar projects across Europe. The innovative platform showcases over 200 agrisolar projects spanning 10 European countries.

The SolarPower Summit 2024 session, ‘Mission Agrisolar: Harvesting the power of the sun’, was attended representatives from the solar and farming sectors, as well as input for the European Commission and MEP Sean Kelly.

The Agrisolar landscape in Croatia is undergoing important changes. SolarPower Europe spoke with Maja Pokrovac, Director of RES Croatia, about the recent developments for solar and agriculture.

SolarPower Europe member BayWa r.e. has secured €6.5 million in funding from the EU’s LIFE Adaptation with Photovoltaics (LIFE ADAPT-PV) programme, which will be used to develop six projects across five countries by 2027, combining agriculture with solar power generation.

As the world grapples with the increasing intensity of the climate crisis, water scarcity, food insecurity and biodiversity loss, our recent trip to an Agrisolar farm in the Netherlands offered a bright ray of optimism.

Today, the world faces an unprecedented crisis: human-induced global warming, which is rapidly affecting the Earth’s climate. Agrisolar offers solutions to co-locate energy generation with providing multiple ecosystem services.
