Cubic Acres Launches Agrivoltaics-Powered Vertical Farms
At Cubic Acres, we are proud to announce an exciting leap forward in sustainable agriculture: the integration of agrivoltaics into our vertical farming operations. This revolutionary approach combines agriculture and solar energy to create a truly sustainable and efficient farming system.
Agrivoltaics allows us to power our farms with clean, renewable energy generated from solar panels. These panels, often installed on rooftops or above vertical farm structures, capture sunlight to produce electricity that drives our operations. The result? A farming process that is not only energy-efficient but also environmentally responsible.
Why Agrivoltaics?
The use of agrivoltaics addresses two major challenges in modern agriculture: energy consumption and land use. Traditional farming often relies on energy-intensive practices and expansive land, which are increasingly scarce in urban environments. By combining solar energy with vertical farming, we maximize resource efficiency and minimize our carbon footprint.
At Cubic Acres, our agrivoltaics systems power everything from LED lighting to hydroponic pumps and climate control systems. This ensures a consistent, renewable energy source that reduces reliance on fossil fuels while maintaining optimal growing conditions for our crops.
Environmental Impact
Energy Efficiency: Solar panels generate the electricity required to power our farms, significantly reducing energy costs.
Carbon Emission Reduction: By using renewable energy, we cut down on greenhouse gas emissions, helping to combat climate change.
Water Conservation: Our hydroponic systems use 90% less water than traditional farming, with agrivoltaics powering the entire process sustainably.
This approach also supports our commitment to growing soil-free, pesticide-free, and chemical-free produce, ensuring that every bite is as clean and natural as possible.
Agrivoltaics is more than a technology—it’s a vision for the future of farming. We’re excited to lead this charge and invite you to join us on this journey toward a greener, healthier world.
