Agrivoltaics Project Manager

Agrivoltaics Project Manager

At Calycé Sun, we have a simple and strong conviction: agrivoltaics must first serve agriculture, then the energy transition. For us, solar energy only makes sense if it sustainably supports farmers, strengthens the resilience of farms, and adapts to the specificities of each territory. We develop tailor-made agrivoltaic projects, designed hand-in-hand with farmers, always guided by one requirement: to create agricultural value before producing energy. If you are looking for an environment where meaning, cooperation, and innovation prevail, you are in the right place.
