Fields of Innovation: Agrivoltaics as the Cornerstone of Future Farming
Agrivoltaics represents a vital step forward in the global clean energy transition, poised to play a crucial role in achieving the ambitious clean energy targets set by regions such as Germany and California.
Germany brings sophisticated solar technology and insights from established projects, while California offers extensive agricultural landscapes and a vibrant entrepreneurial spirit. Enhanced transatlantic collaboration and best-practice-sharing will accelerate the sustainable growth of the Agrivoltaics sector.
Leveraging the significant successes of previous conferences, we are again set to host California's leading platform for Agrivoltaics. This event aims to facilitate the exchange of knowledge, unite key stakeholders, and enhance collaborations that will position Agrivoltaics as the central pillar for sustainable farming in the future.
Here are some key questions that we will tackle:
- How can agrivoltaic systems be optimally designed to maximize both solar energy production and agricultural yield?
- What are best practices from real-life projects and sustainable business models that deliver value to all agrivoltaics stakeholder groups?
- How can agrivoltaic installations be integrated into smart grids or microgrids to enhance energy efficiency and stability?
- and beyond
During both #CGAV23 and #CGAV24, 200+ attendees engaged in discussions on various topics with 30+ expert speakers. The forthcoming #CGAV25 aims to explore these topics further and enhance the experience with a field trip, offering attendees first-hand examples of agrivoltaics in action for a thorough understanding. The goal is to strengthen German-American partnerships, advancing the rapidly growing agrivoltaics market and solidifying agrivoltaics as a sustainable farming solution for the future.Agrivoltaics is the next frontier for the clean energy transition and will be pivotal in reaching ambitious clean energy goals in Germany and California.
About the conference
The California Germany Agrivoltaics Conference was created to strengthen transatlantic collaboration in this important sector, promote idea exchanges, and create an ecosystem from which all players involved can benefit. The goal is to build strong German-American partnerships that will lead this growing market of agrivoltaics.
This conference is a joint initiative of the co-organizers Representative of German Business (GACC West), UC Davis, and Sunzaun, supported by the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection.
