What if the implementation of an agrivoltaic solution on agricultural plots became an effective lever to mitigate the effects of climatic hazards on field crops? Since 2022, the experiments conducted by TSE have highlighted the concrete benefits of this innovative technology.

The energy transition requires us to rethink our relationship to the supply and demand of electricity. At the heart of this dynamic: solar photovoltaic energy, far from being a weakness of the system, is a major asset, too often underestimated or poorly analyzed. Between criticisms of overproduction, intermittency or competition with nuclear power, it is time to recall a simple reality: what is described as an excess of supply at certain periods is in fact a logical and necessary step in the construction of a more carbon-free electricity mix.

In Souleuvre-en-Bocage, in the department of Calvados, the farmer Yoann Bizet chose to engage in an agrivoltaic project with high added value. Living with his wife on a 170-hectare farm, they raise a herd of 105 dairy cows, with the support of eight employees.
