Agrivoltaics (solar generation systems co-located on farmland) avoid disruptive land use, help productive agricultural land remain operational while preserving the natural environment, and allow farmers and ranchers to diversify their income. Several states are exploring the ability of agrivoltaics to simultaneously support food production, land conservation, and energy production, and incentives, programs, and policies that can accelerate research and construction of agrivoltaics. This webinar will explore some of these activities and provide an opportunity for states to better understand the technology and what role it can play in their agricultural communities. Please register for the webinar here and reach out to Jasmine Xie (jxie@naseo.org) or Kelsey Jones (kjones@naseo.org) with any questions.

Prior to the webinar, please join NASEO for a state and territory-only meeting of the Rural Energy Working Group from 1:30 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. ET. This will be an opportunity to discuss the webinar topic in more detail along with other rural priorities. If you represent a State or Territory Energy Office, please register here to participate.
