A 2023 study published in Sustainability highlighted Canada’s significant potential for agrivoltaics, a dual-use land strategy that integrates solar energy production with agriculture. According to the study, installing agrivoltaic systems on just 1% of Canada’s agricultural land could generate between 25% and 33% of the country’s electricity needs, depending on the photovoltaic technology used (vertical bifacial vs. single-axis tracking). The authors emphasize that agrivoltaics presents a promising approach to help Canada meet its climate targets while preserving farmland and supporting rural economies. Policy incentives, technical research, and pilot projects are recommended to scale implementation across provinces
