Agrivoltaics Could Solve One of Solar's Biggest Problems in the Philippines
Reported byCleanTechnica ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
Citicore Renewable Energy Corporation deployed a nearly 200-megawatt agrivoltaic facility in Batangas—one of Southeast Asia's first commercial projects to move beyond pilot stage—combining utility-scale solar with crop production and battery storage after years of successful farm trials at Tarlac sites growing shade-tolerant crops like turmeric beneath solar panels.
Long-term viability across diverse crops and regions remains to be demonstrated at scale.
