In recent years, India has made significant strides in renewable energy adoption, with solar power leading the charge. As the country aims to achieve its ambitious clean energy goals, innovative solar technologies are emerging to maximize land use efficiency and boost energy production. Two such groundbreaking approaches gaining traction are Agri-PV (or agrivoltaics) and floating solar systems. These dual-use solar solutions are not only transforming the energy landscape but also addressing crucial challenges faced by the agricultural and water management sectors. Agri-PV: Harvesting Sun and Crops Together Agri-PV, short for agrivoltaics, is an ingenious concept that combines agriculture and solar energy production on the same land. This innovative approach allows farmers to cultivate crops beneath elevated solar panels, creating a symbiotic relationship between food and energy production. Benefits of Agri-PV: 1. Optimal Land Use: In a country where arable land is precious, Agr
Waaree Energies Ltd., the flagship company of the Waaree Group, was founded in 1989. It is India’s largest solar module manufacturer with a capacity of 12 GW, which is also the largest in the world outside China.
