Press Releases & Navisun in the News
When BlueWave Solar came knocking in 2021, a tenant blueberry farmer wasn’t ready to give up his cropland in Rockport, Maine. But, after conversations with Navisun and the University of Maine (UMaine), an agreement was reached: the blueberries would stay and solar panels would be added to the land in what was, in 2021 (when it energized), the largest dual-use project in the country.

In Danville, Virginia, a local tobacco farmer sought to generate additional revenue from his property, which he had placed into a land trust for future generations. His goal was to do so without disrupting farming operations or engaging in major development.
Long-term partnership begins with the construction of five distributed generation projects for commercial, industrial, and residential customers throughout the Northeast and Midwest.
Navisun is pleased to announce that Jason Spreyer has joined the team as CEO. With over two decades of experience in the energy industry, his leadership and expertise will help to strengthen Navisun’s existing partnerships and guide the company’s expansion into new markets.
From increasing crop production and solar panel efficiency, to providing new land prospects in the face of dwindling solar project sites, to creating a sustainable, long-term food supply, there are myriad reasons why agrivoltaics, or the colocation of solar generating facilities with productive agricultural land, has grown rapidly from about 5 MW of installed solar capacity in 2012 to nearly 3 GW in 2020.
