Our missions

Study of crop and animal requirements

Ombrea partage la vision multi-énergies de TotalEnergies. Celle-ci est essentielle pour allier les enjeux de souveraineté alimentaires et énergétiques. Nos expertises en agronomie, agriculture, climat, biologie et sciences du sol nous permettent d’intervenir sur plusieurs types d’agri-énergies : l’agrivoltaïsme, au cœur de notre expertise depuis 2016, le solaire, et la méthanisation.

Project design and dimensioning

Thanks to our project design tools, we can determine during the development phase which technology is best suited to the crop, the animals, the farmer's itinerary and the farm machinery. The height and spacing of the panels and the sensors can be adapted to the needs of the crop in question.

Numerical modeling and optimization of agri-energy benefits

Our simulators model the benefits generated by the installation of agrivoltaic technology on a given plot. Thanks to the agronomic study carried out upstream, we are able to compare the micro-climate created by the structure with the optimal conditions for crop development. This modeling takes into account all the characteristics of the area concerned by the project, in order to optimize both the services rendered to the crops and the production of solar energy.

Plant monitoring and control

Pour garantir les services apportés et s’assurer du maintien d’une activité agricole et de l’agriculture, les sites agrivoltaïques font l’objet d’un suivi régulier consignés dans un rapport. Les capteurs aériens et souterrains présents sur les sites nous permettent un suivi en temps réel des parcelles. Au quotidien, les technologies solaires dynamiques sont pilotées grâce à un algorithme qui oriente les modules afin d’offrir des conditions favorables au développement agricole.

Our digital technologies

Modeling tools

Developed and used by our teams, they enable us to model the needs of plants and animals, as well as the climate, throughout the project. These tools enable us to create an adapted design and management system.

OmbreApp

Designed for farmers, the application enables them to monitor the climatic parameters of protected plots in real time. It centralizes the information collected by the sensors. This data is used for agronomic monitoring for precision farming.

Control algorithm

Climatic data from the plot is continuously measured by a set of sensors. All this information is collected in real time and is the input data for the module control algorithm. This data enables us to provide the best micro-climate for the plant.
