Bringing to market novel solutions to efficiently combine solar electricity production and agriculture, without trade-offs
About Insolight
Insolight is a Swiss startup, established in 2015, that operates in the agrivoltaics sector. Agrivoltaics is a relatively new field that combines agriculture and solar power to optimize land use. Insolight's primary offering is a product called insolagrin, a dynamic agrivoltaic solution that replaces traditional plastic tunnels used in agriculture with translucent solar modules. This dual-use system allows farmers to generate solar energy while simultaneously protecting and optimizing crop growth.
Read full description
Insolight's business model is centered around providing comprehensive support to farmers throughout the implementation of their agrivoltaic projects. The company's team of engineers and agronomers guide clients through every step of the process, from initial project evaluation and feasibility studies to the construction and continuous optimization of the installation. This includes determining the specific needs of the crops, designing the structure, projecting energy production, costs, and profitability, and providing documentation and a project timeline.
Insolight's target market is primarily farmers who are looking to maximize the efficiency of their land use and transition to more sustainable practices. However, the company also seeks to engage with pioneering companies from their extended value chain through their Global Partnership Program, with the aim of accelerating these companies' sustainable transitions.
In terms of revenue, Insolight makes money by selling their agrivoltaic solutions and providing the associated services, such as project evaluation, design, construction, and optimization.
