With agrivoltaics, municipalities can support local agriculture and energy production simultaneously.
This promotes regional development and can be used for location marketing.
Municipalities in Germany have self-governance authority. In addition to the applicable regulations at federal and state level, they therefore make their own decisions at municipal level. These include the areas of education, environmental protection, healthcare, social services, economic development and also urban planning and infrastructure.
Agrivoltaics, which combines two essential supply areas, can significantly simplify their work. It can also be an effective tool for location marketing.
Municipalities must ensure food and energy supply. Especially in rural regions, the availability of local food from local farmers plays a major role.
Many municipalities struggle with high debt and limited budgets, making it difficult to implement necessary projects and maintain public services.
In many regions of Germany, the migration of young people to urban areas creates challenges such as funding pensions and healthcare systems, and maintaining infrastructure in shrinking regions.

Municipalities face the task of taking measures against climate change, such as reducing CO2 emissions and adapting to climate impacts, including extreme weather events.
Municipalities have to handle a wide range of tasks. Having sufficient expertise in all areas is a daunting task.
With so many responsibilities, it is often challenging to get the public on board.
Introducing agrivoltaic projects can open new revenue streams for municipalities, such as leasing municipal land for agrivoltaic installations or selling the generated electricity. This can help alleviate financial constraints.
These systems not only provide additional income but can also be combined with automated systems, increasing efficiency and productivity and compensating for labor shortages. This can make agricultural work more attractive to younger generations.
Agrivoltaics can enhance the attractiveness of rural regions by enabling farms to operate more profitably and generate additional income. This can help stabilize rural populations and offer young people prospects.
Renewable energy sources help reduce CO2 emissions. Agrivoltaic systems also help make land use more efficient.
By involving experts in agrivoltaics, municipalities can expand their knowledge and educate their residents, involving them in decision-making processes.
Local businesses and service providers can be involved in the construction and maintenance of agrivoltaic systems. This creates jobs and promotes local industry.
Supporting local farmers is important to many people. Projects that focus on regional agriculture and sustainability can strengthen community spirit and actively involve citizens in planning processes.
If municipalities can showcase their own energy supply while identifying with local agriculture, it also has a positive impact both within and outside the community.
