Constructing cattle sheds with photovoltaic panels

Highjoule 2025-11-20

Upon the roof of Yunnan Alilang Yellow Cattle Breeding Co., Ltd.’s cattle sheds, rows of deep-blue photovoltaic panels are neatly arranged, converting sunlight into green electricity beneath the sun’s rays. Beneath the roof, over 1,500 ecological beef cattle graze peacefully on fresh grass, content and undisturbed. This vividly exemplifies the ‘photovoltaic-livestock synergy’ model: rooftop power generation complements livestock farming below, achieving deep integration between energy and agriculture while embedding green, low-carbon principles into rural revitalisation.

The project maximises unused rooftop space with 19,281 square metres of photovoltaic panels. This not only supplies clean electricity to the farm but also diversifies income streams, establishing a composite ‘energy + agriculture’ development model.

In recent years, Shuangbai County has actively promoted ‘photovoltaics + livestock farming.’ Currently, the total installed photovoltaic panel area stands at 34,899 square metres, with an installed capacity of 7.36 megawatts. This setup annually generates 10.3 million kilowatt-hours of clean electricity, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 3,372 tonnes. This initiative not only enhances economic benefits but also drives the green transformation of agriculture.

However, maximising the value of photovoltaic power generation hinges critically on the performance and durability of solar modules. The high-efficiency photovoltaic modules introduced by Huijue Technology Group demonstrate significant advantages in such applications:

High-efficiency energy conversion: Utilising high-purity monocrystalline silicon cells significantly enhances power generation efficiency, maximising energy output;

  • Robust Construction: A durable, weather-resistant frame design withstands wind, rain, humidity, and temperature fluctuations, ensuring long-term reliability;
  • Enhanced Low-Light Performance: Maintains stable power output during overcast conditions or low-light mornings, safeguarding the operation of cattle shed equipment;
  • Anti-reflective coating: Effectively minimises light reflection, enhancing light absorption rates to further boost power generation;
  • Temperature adaptability: Low temperature coefficient ensures sustained high performance even during high-temperature summers.

These technical advantages enable the photovoltaic panels to generate power efficiently not only under ideal weather conditions but also maintain stable, reliable performance within the complex rural environments and variable climates. For livestock enterprises requiring continuous operation, such high-efficiency, durable photovoltaic modules are demonstrably more economical and sustainable.

Photovoltaic generation alone is insufficient. Rural grids possess limited capacity, making surplus power absorption challenging. This is where integrating energy storage systems becomes crucial. Hui Jue Technology Group’s intelligent storage solutions address this critical need:

Peak shaving and valley filling to reduce electricity costs: Storing energy during daylight hours and releasing it at night or during peak consumption periods, helping farming enterprises cut electricity bills;

Intelligent Energy Management System (EMS): Dynamically coordinates PV and storage via an EMS to maximise energy utilisation efficiency;

Self-Generation for Self-Consumption, Surplus Feed-in: Meets daily electricity demands for cattle shed lighting, ventilation, and automated equipment, while surplus power can be fed into the grid for additional revenue;

Stable and Reliable: Highly adaptable systems ensure long-term stable operation in complex rural environments, safeguarding the sustainable development of the livestock industry.

The ‘PV + Livestock Farming’ model delivers dual benefits of clean energy and eco-friendly farming practices. When integrated with high-efficiency PV modules and intelligent energy storage systems, it unlocks even greater potential. For further details, please enquire to receive a bespoke solution.
