AgriSolar Ranch is actively involved in educating communities about the benefits of agrivoltaics. Through workshops, partnerships, and online content, the ranch advocates for the adoption of dual land-use systems, helping to bridge the gap between traditional agriculture and modern renewable energy solutions.
By fostering collaboration between farmers, energy companies, and conservation groups, AgriSolar Ranch is developing a multi-faceted land use model for use on solar facilities. The model prioritizes maintaining the functionality of the power facility and year round fire control, while emphasizing agricultural land use, land conservation, and a focus on preserving native species, particularly endangered meadow species that were once prevalent throughout the Piedmont.
Its work helps to redefine land use in the Mid-Atlantic region and beyond, setting a standard for how solar power and agriculture create a beautiful symbiotic relationship that heals our ecosystem and boosts local rural economies.
