Question 24529 — energy and fuels

Summary

Mr. Frédéric Barbier draws the attention of the Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition regarding the development of photovoltaics on agricultural buildings. While the Government wishes to make solar energy one of the pillars of the French electricity system, regions have already initiated, with the agricultural profession, reflections on mitigation and adaptation to climate change. This is the case of Burgundy Franche-Comté. According to the consultations held there, the production of photovoltaic solar energy on the roofs of agricultural buildings appears to be the most relevant and the easiest to implement, with a significant additional income for farmers. However, many obstacles still hinder the use of this virtuous and popular system. This is the case of the power threshold. Indeed, beyond the threshold of 100kWp of power, solar projects are subject to national calls for tender from the Energy Regulatory Commission (CRE). The procedures involved are centralized, long, complex and not very accessible to farmers, particularly breeders. Thus, only large groups are equipped to meet these requirements, which goes against the Government's recommendations. He therefore asks that the increase to 250kWp of the threshold for roof solar tenders be considered, and that a purchase price identical to that in force for projects from 36 to 100 kWp be set.
