Which Market drivers have played a significant role in driving the solar (on farm) market?
Rising energy costs are expected to propel the growth of the solar (on-farm) market going forward. Rising energy costs are primarily driven by factors such as increased global demand, supply chain disruptions, geopolitical tensions affecting oil and gas supply, and the transition to more expensive renewable energy sources. The use of solar energy on farms helps mitigate rising energy costs by providing a renewable and cost-effective power source for irrigation, equipment operation, and other farm activities, reducing reliance on more expensive fossil fuels or grid electricity. For instance, in July 2024, according to The House of Commons Library, a UK-based library and information resource of the lower house, the energy price cap experienced significant increases, rising by 12% in October 2021, followed by a 54% hike in April 2022, with projections indicating an 80% increase by October 2022. Specifically, gas prices surged by 91% and electricity prices by 70% during this period. Therefore, rising energy costs will drive the growth of the solar (on-farm) market.

Which key trends are expected to influence the solar (on farm) market in the coming years?
Major companies operating in the solar (on-farm) market are focusing on advancements in renewable energy generation combined with agricultural land use to improve irrigation efficiency, reduce energy costs, and enhance water management in farming applications. This approach, known as Agri-PV (Agricultural Photovoltaics), involves installing solar panels on farmland to generate clean energy while allowing continued agricultural activities, such as crop cultivation or livestock grazing, beneath or around the panels. For instance, in May 2024, BayWa r.e., a Germany-based renewable energy company, partnered with VELUX, a Denmark-based building materials company, to launch Spain’s first Agri-PV solar park with a capacity of 54 MW. The project demonstrates dual land use, with approximately 10% of the park’s area designed for farming machinery to move between solar panel rows, enabling both energy generation and agricultural operations. This innovative project not only showcases the potential of Agri-PV systems but also sets a precedent for future developments, illustrating how renewable energy can coexist with agriculture while promoting biodiversity.
