Webinar Overview

The Agrivoltaics in Greenhouses event marks the conclusion of the EU-funded REGACE Project and presents its key findings, practical insights, and future directions.

This online event brings together farmers, policymakers, researchers, and industry stakeholders to explore how agrovoltaic solutions can be effectively integrated into greenhouses. Participation is free of charge. Register now to join the REGACE Final Conference.


The REGACE Project

REGACE is an EU-funded project that explores how agrivoltaic systems can be integrated into agricultural environments to support climate resilience, reduce emissions, and improve resource efficiency.

A central focus of REGACE is the use of agrivoltaics in greenhouses, where photovoltaic systems are combined with protected cultivation.

The project examines how this integration can generate renewable energy while maintaining, or in some cases improving, growing conditions for crops.

REGACE pilots have assessed impacts on light availability, temperature regulation, crop performance, and CO₂ dynamics, providing valuable data for farmers and decision-makers.

By combining real-world pilot sites, modelling tools, and direct feedback from farmers, REGACE delivers practical knowledge that supports informed planning, policy development, and future business models in sustainable agriculture.
