Agro voltaics, from concept to reality
Learn about our efforts to expand the agro voltaics energy model preserving the agricultural yields of the plot, while creating additional value related to energy production

In Hyperion we realise that many land territory use is primarily allocated to agricultural production to meet the food needs of local populations. What initially constituted a constraint for the installation of photovoltaic panels would ultimately become a vector of innovation. Where coupling agricultural and solar production on the same land by creating positive synergies for both is now possible. A new model is born!
Our agro voltaics model preserves the agricultural yields of the plot, while creating additional value related to energy production. In addition to optimizing the space generated, the financial flows generated by the marketing of electricity make it possible to support and diversify the agricultural activity carried out on the site. And, in some cases, to make it competitive, to facilitate the transition to a sustainable and agroecological production model, or to give an economic boost to the farm by creating local jobs
