Agrivoltaic Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2021-2027)

Report Description

Global Agrivoltaic Market is expected to reach the market valuation of 36,317.4 megawatts by 2027 expanding at a reasonable CAGR of 45% during the forecast period (2021-2027). Factors such as commercial-scale solar panel systems require a large amount of land, and since countries have limited land thus installing a solar system will affect the interest of the agricultural industry. Thus, using agrivoltaic technology, both energy generation and farming take place.

Surging population across the globe, limited availability of land for cultivation coupled with rising energy demand are proliferating the market size of agrivoltaic. In addition, the growing population resulted in the need to nearly double the current food production to meet that future demand. Therefore, the agrivoltaic system promises to improve food production and reduce water use, while also creating energy and additional revenue. Hence, market demand for agrivoltaic is expected to increase at a proliferating rate in the forecasted period as it helps to meet the future demand by growing more food, and using less water, while also creating sustainable energy at the same time.

In addition, the agrivoltaic system has a positive impact on crop yield, water consumption, and product quality while providing additional energy production capacity. Also, in the context of scarcity, this system meets the main challenges of sustainable development and brings true value to farmers
