Agri-PV – agriculture and energy generation on the same land
PV fence PAN.
Agri-PV system
The ground-mounted Agri-PV fence PAN enables
agricultural use of the land
between the module rows.
Agri-PV enables the simultaneous use of land for agricultural cultivation and sustainable energy generation. With ground-mounted Agri-PV systems in Category II according to DIN SPEC 91434, agricultural use takes place between the module rows. They are particularly suitable for intensively or extensively managed grassland, forage crops, and arable farming.
Ground-mounted, vertical Agri-PV systems provide significant added value for agriculture in addition to energy generation. They protect fields from erosion and wind-driven soil loss. The area beneath the PV modules can be used as a wildflower strip, which makes cultivation easier while also increasing biodiversity.
Flexible, agriculture-optimised row lengths and row spacing
Compensation for uneven terrain, even on rolling, uneven ground
Vertical alignment for reliable power generation in periods with less sunshine
Suitable for all common bifacial modules, framed or frameless
PAN. The smart PV fence.
Thanks to its modular design and a small number of components, PAN is the smart solution for installing a PV fence on open land. Whether as a Category II Agri-PV variant with a distance of at least 80 centimetres from the first module row to the ground, or as a low PV fence: PAN is particularly quick and easy to install.
An east-west orientation combined with bifacial modules guarantees maximum power production, especially during periods with less sunshine, such as in winter or during morning and evening hours. PAN effortlessly compensates for height differences even on undulating and uneven terrain thanks to an innovative system. The row lengths and spacing of the PAN PV fence are flexible and are precisely adapted to the specific working widths of the agricultural operation.

Advantages of the PAN Agri-PV fence
Technical information PAN Agri-PV system
- Category II: cultivation between the APV system rows (ground-mounted,
vertical mounting) - Module orientation east–west or south possible
- Simple installation thanks to modular design
- Flexible row spacing depending on project-specific working widths
- Removable anchoring method thanks to soil-friendly pile driving of the T.Werk
substructure - Can be adapted to different terrain slopes
- Metallurgically shielded cable routing on profiles and cross rails
- Efficient underground cabling
Advantages of the PAN Agri-PV system
- For Agri-PV as well as private and commercial use
- All common bifacial module types can be used
- Rows of any length are possible
- Wind protection and erosion protection
- Grid-supporting power generation (with east–west orientation) during the
day’s edge hours → better utilisation of the power grid means lower
grid expansion costs and ultimately lower overall economic costs and
less resource use for the energy transition - Unloading the combine harvester over the module rows is possible
- Perforations allow PAN to be adapted to the terrain profile in a terraced form
- Thanks to the innovative plug-in system, modules can be installed by just one person
General Agri-PV advantages
- Promoting biodiversity through wildflower strips or perimeter planting with shrubs/trees
- Efficient land use: APV enables the simultaneous use of land for
food production and energy generation. Installing
solar modules over agricultural land can optimise land use
without impairing valuable arable land - High acceptance among the public and policymakers
- Contribution to climate protection by reducing CO2 emissions
- Regional value creation and promotion of rural development
- Cost reduction for agricultural businesses by generating renewable
solar power for decentralised self-consumption
