Agrivoltaic Market Size
Agrivoltaic Market was valued at USD 5.5 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of over 5.9% from 2024 to 2032. Agrivoltaic, also known as agro-photovoltaics, refers to the combined use of agriculture and solar photovoltaic (PV) systems on the same area of land. In an agrivoltaic system, solar panels are installed above or alongside agricultural crops, creating a dual use of the land for both solar energy generation and crop cultivation.
These systems optimizing land utilization in line with growing awareness and acceptance of agrivoltaics as a sustainable land-use solution will drive the business growth. Moreover, agrarian economies hold high potential for the utilization of these systems.

COVID- 19 Impact
The COVID- 19 outbreak has posed challenges to various industries globally owing to disruption in supply chain and project timelines. Integration of agriculture and solar energy production has been complex and multifaceted. However, growing emphasis on resilient food systems coupled with increasing interest in decentralized energy solutions will complement the business landscape.
Agrivoltaic Market Trends
The integrated approach aiming to maximize land efficiency and provide additional economic benefits to farmers along with its significant contribution to the growth of renewable energy capacity will enhance the business scenario. For instance, according to, National Investment Promotion & Facilitation Agency, India intends to generate about 50% of its overall electric power needs from non-fossil fuel sources, with 50% of that energy coming from renewable sources by 2030.
Agrivoltaic Market Analysis
The fixed agrivoltaic industry will grow at a CAGR of over 5% through 2032. Fixed agrivoltaic systems offering practical solution for maximizing land use efficiency by integrating solar panels without compromising agricultural activities will sway the industry dynamics. Additionally, rising need for stable and predictable solar energy generation. combined with cost considerations and the desire for simplified installation processes will proliferate product adoption.
The vegetables market valuation cross USD 2 billion by 2032, on the account of growing emphasis on sustainable and eco-friendly agricultural practices combined with farmers seeking additional revenue streams and income diversification. In addition, solar panels’ ability to prevent water evaporation allowing for water conservation coupled with research and development focused on identifying vegetable crops suitable for agrivoltaic systems will further accelerate the product demand.
The greenhouses agrivoltaic market is predicted to showcase gains at nearly 4.5% up to 2032. Increasing concerns about climate change along with increasing for resilient farming systems will enhance the business scenario. Technologically advanced greenhouses enhancing the efficiency and functionality coupled with enhanced monitoring and management practices to improve crop yield will augment to industry trends.
Europe agrivoltaic market is projected to expand at more than 6.5% CAGR from 2024 to 2032, owing to increasing demand for solar energy and limited land availability combined with ability to offer shade to crops and potentially mitigating extreme weather conditions. Rise in local manufacturing of solar panels coupled with supportive government policies and financial investments will further influence the industry demand.
