Nothing sweet about agrivoltaics? Discussions on the territorial adequacy of agrivoltaics in Reunion Island

Sustainability Science
Abstract By combining agricultural production and electricity generation, agrivoltaics presents a potential solution to land use conflicts resulting from the integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems into agricultural land. Yet, agrivoltaics offers a technological answer to complex social problems and may not automatically lead to consensual ...
