Agrivoltaics is revolutionizing how we use land: combining agriculture and solar energy production. Simply put: crops are grown under solar panels. The solar panels are spaced to provide enough light for crops to thrive while simultaneously producing electricity. The shade from the panels reduces evaporation from the ground, reducing the need for irrigation, specifically in dry climates. The water released naturally by plants through evapotranspiration cools the panels, preventing overheating. 

This new area of agriculture has numerous benefits: maximizing land use efficiency, reducing water usage, and increasing crop yields. Research into this practice is increasing globally, and Colorado is leading the way within the United States. 

For Tiny Villages Inc. this will allow us to produce more energy for the community, and improve our crop yields to feed residents. We want to become a leader in Colorado for agri volatics technology and implementation. 

The average tiny home today is built on dual-axle trailers and requires either large trucks or permits to move. These factors create barriers to the mobility of homes for residents. As a result, Tiny Villages Inc. will be prototyping micro-homes that can be moved with low-capacity trucks or SUV's, or be relocated with ease without permits. 

A circular economy is an economic system that aims to eliminate waste and keep materials and resources in use for as long as possible. It is based on the principles of designing out waste and pollution, keeping products and materials in use, and regenerating natural systems. In a circular economy, resources are kept in use for as long as possible through reuse, sharing, repairing, refurbishing, and recycling. This approach promotes sustainable development and reduces the negative impact of human activities on the environment. Tiny Villages Community aims to create a circular economy by creating, retaining and reimagining uses for items that enter the property, and create a sustainable community for the residents.
