Empowering agri-food sustainability through data-driven agrivoltaics management

DIGI-GROW is an international R&D EU-project creating a smart, science-based digital platform that helps farmers and food system stakeholders get the most out of agrivoltaic systems — combining solar energy production and agriculture on the same land.

What is DIGI-GROW?

Agrivoltaics, also known as APV (agriculture + photovoltaics), offer a sustainable solution to land use challenges by enabling food and energy production in harmony.

DIGI-GROW supports this transition with a user-friendly and freely accessible online decision-support tool to the needs of farmers, advisors, policymakers and the food industry.

How can DIGI-GROW help?

By using predictive modelling, real-time monitoring, and data-driven decision-making, DIGI-GROW solves problems related to:

  • Optimising energy and water use
  • Maintaining or improving crop yields
  • Boosting economic returns
  • Reducing environmental impact
