Landowners

Give your land a more meaningful purpose

Lease your land for a solar farm

Maximize the value of your land with minimal effort on your part.
By leasing your land to us, you create a long-term and stable source of income, regardless of whether the project involves solar power, battery energy storage (BESS), or a combination of both. You don't have to take responsibility for development or operation yourself; we handle the entire process.

With our long-term, index-linked lease agreements, you can expect secure and predictable income for many years to come, while contributing to the energy transition and a more sustainable energy system. We offer long-term lease agreements with a term of up to 49 years.

When the lease period ends, the land is restored in accordance with the agreed terms and conditions, and the facility is dismantled in a responsible manner.

What type of soil can you build on?

All types of land can be built on, but this does not mean that building on all types of land is profitable. When we examine the land, there are many factors that we take into account in our calculations, such as the distance to the electricity grid connection point, the cost of the land work, solar radiation and many more. Therefore, each site is unique in its own way, which is why we are interested in all types of sites.

How does it work?

Our task is to ensure that the land meets the requirements for a successful energy project. The development process for solar power and battery storage projects varies depending on municipal conditions, regulatory decisions, and the scope of the project. Below, we describe what the planning and development process usually looks like.

1. Landowner contact

We get in touch with a landowner who has a suitable plot of land for a solar park or energy storage facility.

2. mapping

We make a preliminary survey of the land, if the area meets the necessary requirements, the project proceeds.

3. Authorization process

The next step is the authorization process to obtain a building permit. This process can take up to a year. For larger areas, an environmental impact assessment may be required.

4. Financiers

Once the permitting process is complete, the site is presented to our funder and construction of the park begins.

5. Commissioning and Revenue

Once the solar farm is built, the landowner starts receiving his rental income, and the solar farm starts producing electricity.

6. Dismantling

At the end of the contract period, the facility is cleaned up and possession of the land returns to the landowner.

Agrisolar

Solar combined agriculture for the sustainability of diversity

Agriculture is one of the most important industries in large parts of Finland and is needed to ensure food security and keep the countryside alive. Therefore, at Aurinkokarhu we strive to cooperate with agriculture whenever possible. This can be anything from sheep grazing and maintaining the land, beekeeping, or sowing special crops.

As a result, the environmental impact of solar energy production is minimized and sustainability is maximized.
