What is a photovoltaic riding arena ?

The photovoltaic riding arena is an innovative installation that harnesses the sun’s energy to produce electricity and meet the energy needs of an equestrian center. Thanks to photovoltaic panels installed on its roof, this building provides shelter for riders, while capturing sunlight to convert it into electrical current that can be fed into the grid.

This approach represents an ecological and sustainable solution that combines equestrian passion with energy savings.

What are the advantages of a photovoltaic riding arena ?

There are many advantages to equipping the roof of a riding arena with photovoltaic panels. First and foremost, it’s an excellent way of reducing the riding arena’s construction and operating costs. By using the solar energy generated by the photovoltaic system, the riding arena generates its own electricity, and makes substantial savings on electricity bills in the long term. This is the principle of self-consumption. It can also choose to sell surplus production or opt for full sale of the electricity generated, thus benefiting from an additional source of income.

The green electricity generated in this way helps to reduce its impact on the environment and cut greenhouse gas emissions.

In addition to enhancing the value of existing buildings, the installation of photovoltaic panels on a riding arena reinforces the center’s image as an eco-responsible player. This approach to renewable energy demonstrates the equestrian center’s commitment to preserving the ecosystem, which can help win the approval and support of both customers and the local community.
