Blending Solar Power with Farming: Solarsurges Technology’s Innovative Pilot Project in Germany

Solarsurges Technology is working on a new project in Germany where we combine solar power with farming. We do this by using our special solar panel controller to follow the sun.

This pilot project shows how a special type of technology can help farmers grow more crops and produce more clean energy on the same piece of land.

The most exciting part of the project: Keeping photovoltaic panels from getting in the way of farm machinery.

Maximising Crop Yields and Clean Energy Through Smart Solar Tracking

The main advantages of this project are: Shading optimisation

Our AI-driven controller automatically adjusts the angle of the solar panels 24/7 to make sure the crops get just the right amount of sunlight. Crops that can tolerate shade (like leafy greens and berries) can increase how much is grown by 15-20%, and soil moisture stability is improved by 30%.

At the same time, it generates 22% more power than fixed agri-photovoltaic systems, and can adapt to changes in the shape of agricultural land. Impact on the environment: The system's water-saving cooling algorithm reduces the need for irrigation by 18% and reduces the fouling of photovoltaic panels, creating a true circular ecosystem.

The project's benefits:

It shows how controllers can be used in new ways, not just in normal photovoltaic power plants. This has two benefits: it helps farmers and energy producers at the same time. This is a story about sustainable development that follows current trends in environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards and regulations for green agriculture. This is a technology demonstration. It shows how advanced functions (IoT and AI algorithms) work in a real environment.
