Agora Solar, a leading photovoltaic panel manufacturer from Slovakia, has announced a major expansion into the fast-growing agrovoltaics market. The company will use its proprietary ultra-thin, bifacial double-glass solar panels to support dual land-use systems that generate clean energy while enabling continued agricultural production. This initiative reinforces Agora Solar’s mission to advance energy independence through reliable, high-efficiency solar technology.
Panel Technology Tailored for Farming Landscapes
Agora Solar’s agrovoltaic panels are based on its ultra-thin, double-glass design, manufactured in Slovakia using fully automated production lines to ensure high quality and performance. These bifacial modules can capture sunlight on both the front and back surfaces, enhancing energy yield, especially in the flexible spatial configurations needed for agrovoltaic systems. Built for resilience, these panels offer exceptional durability. They are fire-resistant and designed for longevity, backed by a 30-year performance guarantee.
The modular frame options (both framed and frameless) also allow for customisation, a crucial factor when integrating solar installations over agricultural land with varying crop types and cultivation practices.
Accelerating Dual Land-Use: Energy + Agriculture
By deploying its advanced PV modules in agrovoltaic installations, Agora Solar enables farmland to serve a dual purpose, producing both energy and crops. This synergy not only supports sustainable agriculture but also improves land-use efficiency, providing farmers with additional income streams without reducing their cultivation area
The bifacial panels’ ability to capture reflected light from the ground boosts overall energy generation; at the same time, their elevated installation can modulate shade and diffuse light over crops, creating beneficial microclimates that may protect plants from heat stress and reduce water evaporation. All of Agora Solar’s panels are manufactured in Slovakia under strict European quality standards, including IEC certifications. Local production allows the company to maintain tight control over quality, reduce logistical delays and costs, and respond quickly to regional demand. The company highlights a rapid turnaround time, being able to deliver panels in as little as one week.
Agora Solar’s move into agrovoltaics supports its larger goal of expanding clean energy while still protecting and supporting farm production. The company aims to expand capacity significantly, scaling up the production of panels for both traditional PV and agrovoltaic deployments. By offering highly efficient, customizable modules, Agora Solar supports farmers, developers, and communities seeking to adopt sustainable dual-use systems.
Agrovoltaics addresses two critical sustainability needs: the demand for clean energy and the need to optimize agricultural land use. The company’s high-performance, bifacial panels provide a technically advanced and economically viable way to harness both crops and solar power from the same terrain, helping shape a future where food production and energy generation grow together.
