Agri-solar involves the installation of photovoltaic panels on the roofs of production-use buildings in the agricultural, livestock and agri-food sectors. A solution that takes advantage of existing surfaces without consuming land, turning warehouses and stables into sources of renewable energy.
The intervention can also include the upgrading of the roofs: removal and disposal of asbestos, thermal insulation, installation of ventilation systems with an air gap and supply of storage systems.
Romeo Group Fotovoltaica designs and installs agri-solar systems for farming businesses, guaranteeing full support from the initial assessment to the commissioning of the system.
Agri-solar systems allow primary sector companies to turn the roofs of their production buildings — warehouses, stables, greenhouses, storehouses, wineries — into genuine clean energy plants. No consumption of agricultural land: what already exists is used and enhanced.
Farmers, agri-food businesses, agricultural cooperatives, consortia, ATI, RTI, business networks and renewable energy communities can access the incentives. This means that even smaller operators, by joining forces, can reach the critical mass needed for an efficient investment.
Agricultural and livestock buildings often feature vast unused roof surfaces, ideal for installing photovoltaic systems. A 1,000 m² warehouse can host a system of up to 150 kWp, capable of producing more than 180,000 kWh of clean energy a year in Southern Italy — enough to cover a significant share of the company’s energy needs and to generate additional income from the sale of surplus energy.
