Sun’R: a pioneer in agrivoltaics

The Sun’R Group, through its subsidiary Sun’Agri, has developed unique dynamic agrivoltaics technology. The result of three research programs and 15 years of research and development, the purpose of this innovative crop protection tool is to protect farms from the effects of climate change. Sun’Agri uses solar louvres to regulate sunlight and further enhances the benefits of this solution by producing green energy. Intelligent sunlight control protects crops from the effects of climate change.

Agriculture and energy, two complementary forms of production

A livestock agrivoltaics project aims to improve the overall environment of the livestock while producing solar energy. Sun’R is committed to providing sustainable solutions for agriculture by putting agrivoltaics to work for the farming community and not the other way round. With every project, we identify and preserve the agronomic potential of the land by deploying appropriate solar installations. We set up zones for agricultural activity and provide regular project monitoring by our experts.

The benefits of agrivoltaics for livestock farming

  • Combat the risks of climate change
  • Ensure animal welfare
  • Support and promote farming projects that are firmly rooted in the local area
  • Produce renewable energy to help meet the targets set by the French government and the EU
  • Create new grazing opportunities and preserve the agricultural function of the land by placing the farmer at the heart of these transformations
  • Restore grasslands
  • Diversify and secure fair incomes for farms
