Agrivoltaic or agrisolar development is the growth of co-located solar and sustainable agriculture.
The tour will include speakers, berry picking, cyanotype making, prizes and information about agrisolar farm-to-table foods. Come ask questions and visit the farthest north agrivoltaics research site.
The AgriSolar Clearinghouse is a nationwide hub developed by the National Center for Appropriate Technology to connect businesses, landowners and researchers with trusted resources to support the agrivoltaic development.
The solar array in Houston was built by solar developer Renewable IPP and financed by CleanCapital.
