SalvaTerra photovoltaic planter: the vertical vegetable garden that brings green and clean energy to any outdoor space

Imagine a piece of furniture capable of growing fresh herbs, reducing your CO₂ footprint and providing renewable electricity-all in less than one square meter. With the SalvaTerra photovoltaic planter, a 100 percent Italian patent made of Corten steel, this scenario becomes reality. SalvaTerra is the plug-and-play photovoltaic vertical vegetable garden that transforms balconies, terraces and gardens into productive and sustainable oases.

1. What is SalvaTerra: planter, vertical vegetable garden and solar mini-plant.

Feature	“Green” advantage
Corten bathtub 230 × 56 cm	Deep soil → strong roots, three crop rows; weight makes it self-stable.
Vertical double-sided modules	Up to 450 kWh/year: energy for lights, smart irrigation, e-bike charging.
Plug-and-play structure	Comes pre-assembled: place it, plug in the Schuko, start growing in 30 min.
Patented design Made in Trentino	Contemporary lines that enhance urban, rustic or eco-chic resort settings.

SalvaTerra thus integrates vertical vegetable garden + photovoltaics into a single module-a true home solar micro-farm.

2. Why it is the ideal outdoor vertical vegetable garden

2.1 0-mile farming, health and wellness

Herbs that are always fresh reduce the purchase of plastic tubs.
Green lowers the perceived temperature on the balcony and reduces stress by 15 percent (WHO).
Perfect educational workshop: children sow seeds and check on the app how much energy their mini-horse produces.

2.2 Clean energy that helps plants

Built-in micro-inverter powers timers and drippers: precise irrigation, zero water waste.
With optional battery, the garden stays irrigated even during power outages or in off-grid spaces (glamping).

2.3 Saving and circular economy

450 kWh/year × €0.24/kWh ≈ €110 of self-generated electricity each season.
ROI 4-5 years thanks to 36 % Green Bonus and 50 % deduction for plug-in fv.
Excess energy powers LED lights or charges devices, closing the circle of domestic sustainability.

2.4 Corten: long life, minimal maintenance

Self-protective anti-corrosion patina: no paint, no annual treatment.
Cleaning? Only water and soft cloth twice a year on PV glasses.
100 % recyclable material at end of life, after at least more than 25 years.

3. Three “green” use scenarios

Background	How to use	Ecological benefit
Urban balcony	A Family module positioned to the south	Aromatic garden + energy for router and evening lights
Rooftop of eco-friendly hotel	Corporate row as a solar flower bed	kWh production for pool pumps + micro-garden for cocktail bar
Glamping / organic farmhouse	Module among the luxury tents	Plant privacy + driveway lighting powered off-grid

4. Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Do you need a building permit?
No, the planter is considered mobile furniture. Check only municipal regulations for mass installations along borders.

How much energy does it produce in winter?
Vertical panel captures low sun: constant winter yield compared to annual yield, enough for LED, micro-pump and sensors.

Does it withstand wind and weather?
Yes, tank + topsoil exceed 1 000 kg; panels tested for wind load.

Is it suitable for coastal areas?
Corten tolerates saline environments; electrical components IP65. Periodic rinsing with fresh water is sufficient.
