Falck forges French agrivoltaic partnership

• Cooperation with Institut De L'Elevage will contribute to study in regards to combining energy production and farming

Falck Renewables and also the Institut De L'Elevage (IDELE), which operates in France's agricultural industry, will certainly team up on the advancement of agrivoltaic projects across the country.
