The Value4Farm representatives in the World BioGas Expo 2024 hosted by ADBA and WBA Jocelyne Bia World Biogas Association, Julian Park THE SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE, POLICY AND DEVELOPMENT (SAPD) at the University of Reading, Orkídea Sveinn Aðalsteinsson and Helga Gunnlaugsdottir. It was great to talk to so many stakeholders about the work that we do in this #HorizonEurope project and to increase awareness of the need to address farmers and systems needs when designing policies to encourage the integration of alternative forms of energy in #agriculture

Picture the quintessential American farm: a red barn surrounded by expansive fields, rows of thriving crops, and livestock grazing peacefully. Now, envision #solar panels integrated above and between these elements, harnessing renewable energy to power and sustain all this buzzing life! In this episode of the #NRELPodcast, join us for expert-led discussions that delve into the complexities of #agrivoltaics and its transformative potential to enhance both energy generation and #FoodSecurity. 🎧 Listen now ➡️ https://apple.co/3ZhIrjJ

Sheep are proving to be the ideal partners for solar farms. Unlike goats, they don’t chew wires or climb on panels, and their smaller size compared to cattle or horses reduces the risk of damage to solar equipment. By grazing under solar panels, sheep naturally control vegetation, reducing the need for mowing. Research also shows that solar-grazing sheep produce higher-quality wool, thanks to the nutritious forage and shaded microclimate. Projects like Lightsource bp’s solar farm in Australia highlight the benefits of this partnership, proving that agrivoltaics can support farmers, livestock, and renewable energy goals all at once!

At #EUBW2024 #EBAConference organized by European Biogas Association, Connie Miller, GBEP Deputy Coordinator at FAO, outlined how biogas can mitigate farming emissions and advance agronomic techniques to ensure #foodsecurity and #soilhealth. 💡🌱 More on our work on biogas: bit.ly/3C7sdk0

SolarPower Europe has developed an 𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 handbook with the farming industry to guide projects. It said the resource for farmers and solar developers is a “win-win-win” for agriculture, energy, and society. The handbook lists benefits such as up to a 60% increase in crop yield, depending on crop type, season, regional climate, and PV setup. It also highlights soil temperature changes, with increases of up to 7 C during cold periods and decreases of up to 6 C during warm periods. The handbook lists additional benefits, including up to an 80% increase in soil carbon storage for solar grazing projects, a 20% to 30% boost in water retention for interrow and elevated PV systems, and a 60% rise in pollinator presence, as observed in one project. 👉 https://lnkd.in/eDuUe2vj #RenewableEnergy #SolarEnergy #Sustainable #GreenGrowth
