In Shiner and beyond, we support farmers with agrivoltaic systems that serve both environmental and financial needs.
Agrivoltaics Backed by Data and Built for Shiner
We don’t just build microgrids in Shiner. We help define what’s next for Texas agriculture. We are an active partner in the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley’s (UTRGV) landmark initiative: the “Agrivoltaics for Climate-Smart Agriculture” project. With support from the USDA, this effort unites solar innovation and academic study to assess agrivoltaic benefits for Texas growers.
These panels, installed by our team, are actively delivering clean energy as part of the pilot. These systems include high-tech sensors that collect real-time data on soil, gas, and air quality. This data is being used to quantify how solar panel shading affects key environmental outcomes like carbon retention, soil health, and water efficiency.
