French Design andManufacturing Solar energy is converted into electricity via photovoltaic panels installed on the central unit. The orientation and the tilt of the panels are adjustable to optimize energy production. The energy produced is stored on batteries which supply the electricity to power the pivot. By producing electrical energy locally, the solar pivot dramatically reduces energy costs for farms. The investment of the solar pivot pays for itself in a few years by reducing the total cost by around 60% compared to a pivot powered by a generator and by more than 20% compared to a pivot...
