Optimisation of vertically mounted agrivoltaic systems
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2021 Agrivoltaic systems represent a key technology for reaching sustainable development goals reducing the completion of land for food versus land for energy. Moreover, agrivoltaic systems are at the centre of the nexus between electricity production, crop production, and irrigation water saving.

The potential of agrivoltaic systems [PDF]
Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2016 Abstract In order to meet global energy demands with clean renewable energy such as with solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, large surface areas are needed because of the relatively diffuse nature of solar energy. Much of this demand can be matched with aggressive building integrated PV and rooftop PV, but the remainder can be met with land-based PV ...

Designing plant-transparent agrivoltaics. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 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
