Session

Agrovoltaic. Photovoltaic and cultivation in the same space

Stage 1

Agrovoltaics is gaining ground in several northern European countries and has just arrived in Spain. It makes it possible to increase the efficiency of available surfaces, with a perfect symbiosis between cultivation and self-production of energy. There are ways to make cultivation and a photovoltaic self-consumption system compatible in the same square metres, allowing us to save on our farm's energy bill, the key in many cases lies in the efficiency of the available space. The evolution of photovoltaic systems, together with higher and lighter structures, allow machinery to work on the surface normally. The future photovoltaic pilot project on super-intensive olive groves in El Valenciano Innovation Hub will be presented.

European Aid and Funds for Renewables in the primary sector

Stage 1

The end of September sees the publication of the regional regulations that will regulate the arrival of the first EU Next Generation funds. These funds and the recently published regulations will have a special impact on self-consumption and the energy transition in the primary sector. Specifically, "Incentive Programme 2": Implementation of self-consumption installations, with renewable energy sources, in other productive sectors of the economy, with or without storage. We will learn first-hand about the keys to these grants and subsidies from leading experts.
