Farmers can now expect unmatched produce projection accuracy thanks to the integration of genetic marketing and advanced irradiance modeling in the acquisition.

Okovate Sustainable Energy, Inc. ( also known as” Okovate” ), a leader in the development of agrivoltaic projects, today made the successful acquisition of Fundusol, a modeling platform created by Stanford University and Carnegie Mellon. This consolidation opens a new era for data-driven detail in the co-location of renewable energy and agriculture, supported by Okovate’s support from The Schmidt Family Foundation. &# 13,

Okovate is now integrating Fundusol’s cutting-edge modeling engine, a powerful tech stack used to create the intricate interactions between produce phenology and solar range architecture. With the merger, Okovate can go beyond standard growth and provide agricultural community technical information.

By purchasing the Fundusol system, Okovate fulfills its goal of making agrivoltaics a trusted, data-driven real for the British farmer, according to Miles Braxton, CEO of Okovate. On top of this genetic model engine, we are developing predictive AI tools to transform complicated solar engineering into meaningful insights for remote farmers. Tⱨis allows μs to ρrovide the data-driven pɾecision nȩeded to improve the financial foundation σf our planting communities by nσt just funding power projects. &# 13,

The integrated platform uses the crop biomass model from the SIMulated PLant Ecosystem ( SIMPLE ) to forecast the outcomes of over 60 different crop types. Okovate offers: &# 13, by combining this model with its proprietary brightness and thermal relationships models.
•Genomic Marketing: Using a unique, in-house biological algorithms to determine the perfect thermal range configurations based on crop specific mild saturation requirements, such as panel spacing, height, and tilt. &# 13,
• High-fidelity modeling that simulates how certain plants will respond to the microclimates created by renewable system. &# 13,
•Advanced Data Visualization: Using digital twins and 3D program images to aid farmers in preparing for building work to begin. &# 13,

This consolidation strengthens Okovate’s” Agriculture First” theory by enabling the professional equipment required to scale agrivoltaics while maintaining the farm’s financial stability and land dignity. &# 13,
