Description

For Solveo Energies, we built a 30,415 m² photovoltaic greenhouse in Comberouger, in the southwest of France, including a 1,600 m² test area without photovoltaic modules.

Under this structure, Mr Fiorito will cultivate vegetables as well as aromatic plants such as lavender, thyme, and oregano. Thanks to this photovoltaic greenhouse, crops will be protected from all climatic conditions, thereby improving production and profitability.

This greenhouse stands out for its wide-span design with an asymmetrical roof, developed according to our VENLO SOLAR WINDOWS principle:

  • The south-facing slope is equipped with photovoltaic modules, with under them tempered diffused glass which ensures an even distribution of light inside the greenhouse, reducing shaded areas.
  • The north-facing slope is made of tempered glass and fitted with continuous 0.85 m wide ventilation, ensuring effective airflow.
  • The cladding is made of horticultural glass, guaranteeing optimal light transmission.
  • A weather station and a climate computer provide precise climate control through automated management of the vents.

The foundation work was completed in a record time of 11 days, while complying with the industry’s strictest standards.

This project was carried out near high-voltage power lines, requiring particular attention to safety and accuracy during execution.

In terms of environmental impact, this greenhouse generates 3.3 MWp and prevents the emission of 35 tonnes of CO₂ per year, equivalent to the annual emissions of 1,001 households.

We greatly value our successful collaboration with Solveo Energies.

This project demonstrates our expertise in building large greenhouses, even in challenging conditions.
