Operating under the Ombrea brand, TotalEnergies will provide the agricultural community with comprehensive solutions for the harmonious integration of solar power and agricultural activities. These solutions encompass strategies to safeguard against adverse weather conditions, sustain or enhance crop yields, and adapt to the challenges posed by climate change.
This strategic acquisition will also enable TotalEnergies to fast-track the development of its portfolio of 1.5 GW of agrivoltaic projects, aligning with the criteria outlined in the French Renewable Energy Acceleration Law enacted in March 2023.
With this integration, TotalEnergies welcomes over forty experts from Ombrea, including its founders, Christian Davico and Julie Davico-Pahin. These experts will join TotalEnergies’ dedicated agrivoltaics team at Ombrea’s Aix-en-Provence site, which will serve as the focal point for the company’s agrivoltaics division. This development marks a significant step toward advancing sustainable and innovative solutions at the intersection of agriculture and renewable energy.
“We are proud to welcome the French agrivoltaics leader Ombrea to the Company. This move will allow us to combine our expertise and know-how to accelerate the deployment of solutions that enable the agricultural sector to increase its income by producing energy, while sustaining its activities and reducing its carbon footprint,” said Vincent Stoquart, Senior Vice President, Renewables at TotalEnergies. “We are delighted that the wider area and Aix-en-Provence will hence become TotalEnergies’ global hub for agrivoltaics.”
“We are delighted to be joining TotalEnergies, where Ombrea will help to scale up the company’s ambitious vision for the regions. We look forward to seeing the accelerated deployment of our smart solutions to promote high-performance, forward-looking agriculture”, said Ombrea founders Christian Davico and Julie Davico-Pahin.
