The agribusiness sector is one of those that invests most in energy solutions today. According to data from ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency), of the 9,96 GW of installed solar DG power in Brazil, around 14% operate within rural properties (1,35 GW).
According to You.On Energia, activities and demands of rural production such as water pumping and irrigation, refrigeration of meat, milk and other products and temperature regulation for poultry and chicken production, lighting, electric fences, telecommunications systems, are between solution applications.
For Giorgio Seigne, CEO of You.On Energia, one of the success factors of Brazilian agribusiness is the high competitiveness of national products compared to other global players.
“As one of the main inputs for rural productive activity is electrical energy, the use of batteries combined with solar energy on farms is currently one of the great solutions to further increase the quality and sustainability of agricultural and livestock management in Brazil,” he said. Seigne.
According to Luis Banzato, CEO of Atria EEnergy, the agribusiness market has already been thought of by Atria since 2020, and with this solution, companies stimulate development in the sector and “assume a prominent role as a partner for Brazilian agribusiness”, he concludes. Banzato.
