Agrivoltaics refer to the sharing of agricultural activity and solar power generation on the same land. Landowners benefit in several ways: many crops produce higher yields and need less water, while livestock does better in the shade of the panels. Plus the produced solar power means an additional income source.

As the demand for solar generation has grown among both the residential and commercial/public sectors, so has the need for increased efficiency and higher energy collection. While some manufacturers focused on optimizing existing solutions and using highest performing solar panels, others developed the next generation of solar trackers that move along 2 axes: the east-west and the north-south as well.
