One might think that solar panels are more suitable on rooftops rather than for solar farms, taking up fertile farm land. The news is that, with Vitsolc green agriculture technology, farming and electrical power production finally become compatible.

So, why not leveraging the same surface for farming both plants and solar energy? Vitsolc’s transparent technology can be integrated into the glass roof of greenhouses to capture a specific part of the sunlight irradiation to produce electricity, and let pass that which is beneficial for the photosynthesis. Also, for plants cultivated in regions with high insolation, our solar cells can be tuned for an optimal light management and setting the residual illumination to the ideal value.

Thanks to this technology, greenhouses’ plant growth will be fostered while the roofs will produce energy at the same time.
