When solar performance serves agricultural potential. AgriGround is the fixed, elevated and versatile agrivoltaic structure in the EnerGround range.

Our approach to agrivoltaics: the perfect balance

Ecostal Engineering brings its expertise to the agrivoltaic transition.

  • From conventional solar to dual-use farming: originally designed purely for energy performance, our structures are evolving to meet a dual objective, producing green energy without hindering livestock or crop farming.
  • A real asset for the farm: controlled shading, protection against extreme weather (drought, hail, frost) and animal welfare make the structure a driver of higher yields for the farmer.
  • A tailored response to each project: because no two farms are the same, our designs adapt precisely to the variety of crops, the type of livestock and the size of the farm machinery.
  • Respect for the soil, an absolute priority: soil is the farmer’s primary working tool. Our anchoring methods are designed to preserve the agronomic structure of the land and ensure full reversibility.

AgriGround, the fixed, elevated and versatile structure

It draws on the expertise behind our HelioGround ground-mounted structure and on the adaptation of our HelioPark canopies.

  • Optimised height and clearance: farm machinery moves freely, and livestock pass under the structure in complete comfort.
  • Protection and shelter: a favourable microclimate forms under the panels, sheltering livestock from heat stress and protecting crops.
  • Simplicity and robustness: a proven fixed design, offering maximum long-term reliability with very little maintenance.

Designed to withstand the extreme demands of farming environments

  • Enhanced corrosion resistance: high-durability coatings and steels that take account of plant protection products, fertilisers, ammonia and animal waste (slurry, manure).
  • Safe coexistence with livestock: reinforced structural design to withstand knocks and rubbing from animals, and a design with no sharp edges and protected, out-of-reach cabling, to avoid any risk of injury or damage.
  • Eco-designed foundations: anchoring without heavy concrete work, on driven or screw piles, which preserves soil quality and limits soil compaction.

Innovation and R&D: focusing on low-carbon timber structures

Launched in 2026 for four years, our research and development programme is supported by the Walloon Region and run with two industrial partners and three universities.

  • Eco-design in raw timber: timber structures with processing kept to a strict minimum, as close as possible to the raw log, for the lowest possible carbon footprint.
  • Bespoke agrivoltaic configurations: several versions of timber structures, adapted to each type of farm, whether livestock or crops.
  • Mechanical optimisation and soil preservation: advanced research to minimise wind and snow loads, and therefore the volume of the foundations and the impact on agricultural soil.

Let’s talk about your project

Crops, grazing, livestock: we study your fields and your farming constraints to design a ground-mounted agrivoltaic structure that fits in with them.

With our AgriGround and AgriTrack ranges, our structures no longer simply produce energy: they become true partners in day-to-day farming.
