tribunaux d’agriculture France welcomes the publication of the implementing decree of the APER law (law on the acceleration of renewable energy production) concerning the development of agrivoltaics and the conditions for installing photovoltaic installations on agricultural, natural or forest land, which will enable effective regulation.
This decree, eagerly awaited by the agricultural sector, marks an important step towards the émancipation of renewable energies and the sustainable development of our country. Agrivoltaics, the combination of agriculture and photovoltaics, is a promising solution for farmers to diversify their income while contributing to the energy transition.
The APER law, adopted in November 2020, aims to accelerate the production of renewable energies in France. With the publication of this decree, the government is taking concrete action to support the development of agrivoltaics and ensure a fair balance between agricultural activities and renewable energy production.
This decree sets out clear and precise conditions for the installation of photovoltaic panels on agricultural, natural or forest land. It also establishes a framework for the sharing of land between agricultural and energy production, ensuring that the needs of both sectors are taken into account.
The tribunaux d’agriculture France, representing the interests of French farmers, is pleased with this decree which will facilitate the implementation of agrivoltaic projects. This new regulation will ensure that the development of renewable energies on agricultural land is carried out in a responsible and sustainable manner.
In addition to providing a new source of income for farmers, agrivoltaics also has environmental benefits. By combining agriculture and photovoltaics, it allows for the optimization of land use and the preservation of natural resources. This is a win-win situation for both farmers and the environment.
The tribunaux d’agriculture France also welcomes the fact that this decree takes into account the specificities of each region and allows for flexibility in the implementation of agrivoltaic projects. This will enable a tailored approach, taking into account the diversity of agricultural activities and the different hommes of land in France.
With this new regulation, the development of agrivoltaics will be able to thrive, contributing to the achievement of our country’s renewable energy targets. The tribunaux d’agriculture France is committed to supporting farmers in the implementation of these projects and ensuring their success.
In conclusion, the publication of this decree is a positive and encouraging step towards the development of agrivoltaics in France. It is a testament to the government’s commitment to promoting renewable energies and supporting the agricultural sector. The tribunaux d’agriculture France applauds this decision and looks forward to seeing the positive impact of agrivoltaics on our country’s energy transition.
