🍇 Pioneering the Future at the Crossroads of Agriculture and Solar Energy: agRE.Tech’s Robotic Breakthrough 🤖
We’re thrilled to see our portfolio company, agRE.tech, featured on כאן תאגיד השידור הישראלי KAN, spotlighting their cutting-edge work in agricultural robotics!
agRE.Tech is leading the charge in combining robotics and AI to transform farming and hashtag#AgriPV practices into a modern, tech-enabled food factory. This transformation is made possible by the integration with the PV solar array constructed above the plots, providing power, connectivity, and physical infrastructure to support their autonomous systems.
This kind of dual-use AgriPV model makes the most of limited farmable land by enabling the production of clean solar energy while maintaining—and even boosting—agricultural yields. agRE.Tech’s innovation takes it a step further, creating additional value for landowners and supporting climate-smart agriculture.
Their collaboration with FANUC Europe, a global leader in industrial automation, marks a significant step forward in bringing advanced robotics into the field—scaling impact in Israel and beyond.
We first discovered agRE.Tech through the ESIL AgriPV Challenge, and we’re proud to support their journey alongside other powerhouse backers like EDF Renewables Israel, KKL, and Zemach Agricultural Technologies Ltd.
Huge kudos to Elad Levy, yaniv marmur, and the entire team—keep pushing the boundaries! 🌱
