Designing plant–transparent agrivoltaics [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 AbstractCovering greenhouses and agricultural fields with photovoltaics has the potential to create multipurpose agricultural systems that generate revenue through conventional crop production as well as sustainable electrical energy. In this work, we evaluate the effects of wavelength-selective cutoffs of visible and near-infrared (biologically active)

Design of an Agrivoltaic System with Building Integrated Photovoltaics
Agronomy, 2023 Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) are becoming popular as building elements such as windows, roofs, and outer walls. Because BIPVs have both a construction material function and an electricity generation function, they are a promising alternative

Legal framework of agrivoltaics in Germany [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2021 In Germany, agrivoltaic systems are not explicitly embedded in the legal framework. In order to advance the technology and thus make a contribution to the energy transition and sustainable food production, legal implementation is of great relevance. An analysis of the four sectors construction, energy, agriculture and environment presents the current ...

A Cost–Benefit Analysis for Utility-Scale Agrivoltaic Implementation in Italy
Energies, 2023 Utility-scale photovoltaic plants can take up areas as wide as several tens of hectares, often occupying spaces normally used for other purposes. This “land competition” issue might become particularly relevant for agriculture since, similarly to the ...
