Researchers test revolutionary method of combining crops and solar panels: 'There is an unlimited number of iterations'
Agrivoltaics — also known as dual-use farming — provides immense possibilities for a greener future. A research project from the University of Illinois has taken a hands-on approach to studying this method of farming, using Illinois crops to test its effectiveness. According to FarmWeekNow, an agrivoltaic site was built by the Sustainable Colocation of Agricultural and Photovoltaic Electricity Systems team and funded by the USDA National Instit…
Pcfruit, the fruit growing experimental center in Sint-Truiden, is investigating the feasibility of installing solar panels above fruit plantations. These solar panels would be ideal for powering fruit growers' cold stores. The solar panels have been installed above a raspberry plantation owned by pcfruit. The research should determine whether the plants can grow under the panels without significant production losses.
