While I am in France, we have the same issues, Nimbys aren't helping, we have a massive cutting edge agrovoltaique installation planned in my village, I support it, despite it ruining the view on my daily walk, but everyone else is fighting it, because house prices might go down.

Agreed, the fields they want to put the solar installation have to be watered like mad most summers, exposed to wind and sun and quick to dry soil, the agrovoltaique set up means they will open up to other higher value crops and use less water, water running out is a massive issue here.

FYI: A French vintner plants vines under solar panels to shield grapes from climate extremes #agriculture #vins #agrovoltaïque #changementclimatique #vinfrançais
