Sicily solar farm to host grazing sheep under raised panels
Original: Around 820 sheep will graze beneath solar panels raised 4 feet above pasture at Sicily’s 225.5-MW farm
A 225.5-megawatt solar farm in Sicily will raise its panels four feet above pasture so that around 820 sheep can graze beneath them, combining renewable energy generation with continued agricultural use of the land. The dual-use setup reflects growing interest in agrivoltaics, where farmland serves both energy and livestock purposes, and has drawn attention for its practical approach to land efficiency.
Why now: The unusual combination of large-scale solar power and sheep grazing makes it a talking point in energy and farming circles.
