Conference “The Situation of Agrivoltaics in Spain”
April 8 @ 12:00 am
Agriculture is one of the economic sectors most affected by climate change and, at the same time, is an activity that can provide solutions to the necessary transition toward more environmentally sustainable models.The agricultural sector is capable of addressing the challenge of producing safe, high-quality food, strengthening the socioeconomic fabric of rural areas and taking into account the environment in which it operates.Agrivoltaic systems involve combining agricultural activity with energy production through photovoltaic installations installed alongside crops, in which agricultural activity takes precedence over energy activity. These systems can lead to increased land use efficiency, offering the potential to increase the use of renewable energy to combat climate change while preserving fertile land for agriculture.The high levels of sunlight in Spain have generated growing interest and suggest that these systems have potential, but numerous uncertainties remain, such as the synergies between the facilities and crops and the economic viability of the projects, among others.Organized by:The General Directorate of Agricultural Production and Markets of the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPA), within the framework of the CAP Network, coordinated by the Subdirectorate General of Agricultural Policy Planning.Objectives of the day:To present the actions carried out by the Administration related to agrivoltaic systems.The French case will also be discussed.To deepen knowledge andexperienceregardingagrivoltaic installations in SpainAnalyzethe opportunities and obstaclesfor the development of agrivoltaics in SpainTarget audience:The event is aimed at technical staff from agricultural organizations, agricultural cooperatives, autonomous communities, and other individuals or entities interested in the topic.Participation modality:The event will be held in a mixed format:In personat the Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Fisheries Auditorium(Paseo de Infanta Isabel, 1, Madrid).
