Agrivoltaic structure

Product overview
Discover TSE's agrivoltaic solution adapted to the biodiversity of fallow land (plots left fallow for over 6 years). The FS-100 system provides partial, rotating shading to protect plots from climatic hazards while supporting on-site biodiversity and allowing agricultural operations to continue.

Key advantages

• Partial and rotating shading that meets ecological requirements of native species and reduces water stress.
• Minimal ground footprint with a spaced layout enabled by a tracker system to support ecological management and biodiversity development.
• Reduced soil disturbance through driven pile foundations and a construction process designed to limit impact on existing habitats.
• Compatibility with agricultural machinery for continued access and operations on the plot.
• Full reversibility at the end of the project.
• Provides long-term income guarantees to farmers and landowners.

Agronomic benefits

• Helps lower plot temperatures during summer periods.
• Reduces evapotranspiration and limits water stress.
• Respects ecological requirements of plant species and limits shifts in species composition.
• Promotes plant biomass and organic matter formation.
• Contributes to the maintenance and development of local biodiversity.

Construction & site integration
The solution uses tracker technology to create partial, rotating shade while minimizing structural footprint. Foundations are driven metal piles to reduce soil disturbance. The spaced installation allows fauna and flora to persist beneath and around the arrays. Fixed fencing may be installed around the plot to meet insurance requirements. The construction process is planned to limit impacts and the installation is fully reversible at project end.

Land development
TSE's offering to the farmer can include environmental land management measures such as planting hedgerows and seeding plant species that enrich soil and support biodiversity at the territory level.
