Agrivoltaics. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced the Large Animal and Solar System Operations (LASSO) Prize to offer up to $8.2 million to projects developed for the dual use of land for solar energy generation and cattle grazing. The LASSO Prize is funded by DOE's Solar Energy Technologies Office, and aims to bring together teams of multi-stakeholders, such as landowners, solar developers, and ranchers, to build an understanding of the outcomes of agrivoltaics on cattle. Prize applications will open in September, close on October 14, and prizes will be awarded on November 28.
