Solargik, a company specialised in adaptive photovoltaic solutions, has announced the signing of 85 megawatts (MW) of new solar tracker projects across Italy, consolidating its role in the country’s solar energy sector. The agreements include a 45 MW portfolio with the Italian company Revalue, a third contract with Free Ingegneria, as well as a 20 MW AgriPV project in the southern region of Basilicata.

Solar projects deployed on previously inaccessible land

The signed portfolio brings Solargik’s total capacity in Italy to several hundred MW, according to official statements. The new sites cover various Italian regions, from the northeast to the south, including agricultural areas and steep slopes previously regarded as too complex for large-scale photovoltaic plant installation.

In 2024, Italy recorded a record growth in its solar market, with the addition of around 6.8 GW of new capacity, representing an increase of 30% compared to the previous year, according to Bloomberg reported on July 11, 2025. This growth comes with increased pressure on land access, notably due to new national guidelines limiting the use of farmland for the installation of solar farms.

Technical solutions adapted to land constraints

The adaptive tracking systems developed by Solargik, compatible with agrivoltaics (AgriPV), address these challenges by enabling installation on rugged, constrained, or regulated terrains. The partnership with Revalue covers ten sites for accelerated delivery expected by the second half of 2025, relying on technical solutions aimed at reducing land impact while optimising output.

The collaboration with Free Ingegneria involves a 20 MW portfolio across four sites, with slopes reaching up to 40%. Solargik implemented short structures and specific tracker orientation to make these sites viable, despite strict environmental and administrative constraints.

Agrivoltaics, a new lever for solar expansion

The 20 MW AgriPV project in Basilicata features solar trackers designed for agricultural environments, providing a ground clearance of 1.3 metres and a maximum height of 2.5 metres. This system enables the simultaneous use of land for both agriculture and electricity generation, without major alteration to the landscape or changes to the natural relief, while complying with criteria imposed by the relevant authorities.

Solargik’s solutions are part of a market context where the scarcity of available land and the evolution of national regulations are driving technical innovation. “Solargik has brought a rare technical approach and practical execution,” said Luca Di Giacomo, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Revalue, quoted by Bloomberg on July 11, 2025.
