Open space for photovoltaics.
Do you have unused commercial space, farmland or other agricultural land? Together with VODASUN® you can convert fallow or unusable fields into profitable solar parks. Lease your land for photovoltaics and benefit from regular rental income.
Lease unused open space for photovoltaics
Large areas in particular are predestined for the installation of solar systems, as the high investment costs are offset by the large number of square metres. For large areas such as farmland, leasing for solar is particularly profitable due to the very high average rental income. For other areas, there is even state support for the construction of a solar park!
Your experts for solar systems at VODASUN® will inform you about your options and advantages when leasing open land for photovoltaics and explain any requirements.

Lease land and benefit from advantages!
Your benefits at a glance
The sun is an inexhaustible resource whose radiation can be utilised for the cost-effective generation of solar power. Leasing your open space for solar installations also brings numerous other benefits – and not just for your wallet.
Economic profit
You benefit from a one-off payment at the start of the lease or from monthly rental income. VODASUN® concludes lease agreements for 20 years. These can be extended twice by 5 years each time.
Upgrading your property
A solar power system on your outdoor area enhances the value of your property, which has a positive effect on the property value.
More efficiency
Because the soil is not cultivated during this time, it recovers and can then be utilised more efficiently. Biodiversity also increases.
Ground-mounted PV systems - requirements
In order for a PV system on your open space to pay off, certain conditions must be met:
- The area: Your land must be at least five hectares in size in order to be able to lease the agricultural land for solar.
- Solar radiation: The orientation and shading of the area play a role here. In order for you to be able to lease your open space for photovoltaics, continuous sunlight would be ideal.
- Access & accessibility: This aspect becomes relevant during maintenance. However, the distance to the nearest route connection also plays a role.
Open space for photovoltaics: maximise rental income
Would you like to lease your land for solar and maximise your income? The location of your open space has the greatest influence on the rental income. In addition to the above-mentioned requirements, the type of land also plays a role according to the EEG.
Sealed areas, open spaces next to motorways or generally agriculturally disadvantaged areas or conversion areas are difficult to cultivate profitably, which is why the state subsidises the construction of solar parks on such areas.
But even if you want to continue using your land for agricultural purposes, you have the option of leasing your arable land for photovoltaics – this is where so-called agri-photovoltaic systems come into play. These are mounted at a higher level so that the area below can be used for growing food.

FAQs - the most frequently asked questions
How much rent do I have to pay if I rent out my open space?

We will be happy to advise you on this. Simply send us an enquiry using our solar configurator and you will receive a response from us within the next 24 hours.
What are the advantages of letting open space?
One of the main advantages is that you, as the landowner, benefit from a one-off payment at the start of the lease or from regular monthly rental income. By working with VODASUN®, lease agreements are concluded for a period of 20 years, with the option of extending them twice by 5 years each time. This long-term planning provides financial stability and security for the landowner.
Another significant advantage is the enhancement of your property through the installation of a solar system. This has a positive effect on the property value and increases the attractiveness of your land.
During the term of the lease, the land undergoes a period of non-cultivation. This rest period allows the soil to recover and improve its fertility.
