Independent agricultural performance and risk analysis for agrivoltaic projects.
Studies for developers of utility-scale agrivoltaic projects. Aggregate figures only: we do not name clients without their consent.
Delivered as
Site or portfolio screening: agronomic, environmental and regulatory fit, red flags, and high-level PV and crop yield context, on one method across every site. Ends with a go / no-go brief per site.
Delivered as
Coupled light, microclimate, soil water and crop simulation for one site and layout; multiple weather years, rainfed and irrigated; PV yield and LER; signed report.
Delivered as
The Technical Analysis plus risk assessment, an agrivoltaic use concept, design optimisation and the authority package.
Delivered as
Coupled light, microclimate, soil water and crop simulation for one site and layout; multiple weather years, rainfed and irrigated; PV yield and LER; signed report.
Delivered as
Yield, light, microclimate and soil-water data from the operating site: collected, quality-checked, stored and reported each season against the modelled baseline and the monitoring the permit requires.
We model what your crop keeps under a proposed PV array: light, microclimate, soil water and growth, solved together on your site. The result is a report an authority can review.
Open field
The reference every result is measured against.
Under the array
Between the rows
Illustrative example · typical ranges, not project results
Light, microclimate, soil water and crop growth run on the project's own geometry, weather, soil and crop calendar, across the pitch and hour by hour.
Ray tracing of the array, hour by hour
Leaf and soil temperature, humidity and wind
Rain, evaporation and roots, down to 2 m
Yield per zone, over many seasons
Machinery passage and headland turns
AgRadiance was founded in 2025 by two engineers, one from each side of the field.
Energy systems engineer · Co-founder
8+ years of experience across agrivoltaics, PV system modelling and project development. Previously led agri-PV project development at Zimmermann PV-Steel Group and was a research engineer at ISC Konstanz, specialising in PV performance and yield prediction. Lead author of the field's first comprehensive textbook on agrivoltaics, published by the IET and written with 32 experts from 9 countries.
Agro-environmental systems engineer · Co-founder
7+ years of experience where agrivoltaics, agriculture, climate finance and clean energy meet. Previously Chief Agriculture Officer at Okovate, a U.S. agrivoltaics developer, and before that led climate finance and sustainable agriculture work at the World Bank. Educated at Yale and Wageningen University, with a background in crop science and environmental systems.
