BayWa r.e. has commissioned its first agrivoltaics (agriPV) project in Spain, a 54MW facility, and has signed a power purchase agreement (PPA) to sell electricity generated at the project to the Velux Group. The project in southern Spain consists of 85,000 solar panels, with 10% of the land set aside for farming machinery. Two Spanish universities will work with BayWa r.e. on academic research. BayWa r.e. and the Velux Group have plans to commission a second agriPV project in Spain by next year. The field of agriPV is expanding globally, with new insights and developments emerging in the US and Europe. Italy recently banned new solar projects on agricultural land.
