Economic feasibility of using agrivoltaics for tomato farming
Food and Energy SecurityAgrivoltaics or agrophotovoltaics (APV), which simply describes farming under a canopy of PV panels, has been recently gaining a wider implementation to improve farming yields as well as generate electricity on the same piece of land. The presented study

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 ...

Energy Policy for Agrivoltaics in Alberta Canada
Energies, 2022 As Alberta increases conventional solar power generation, land-use conflicts with agriculture increase. A solution that enables low-carbon electricity generation and continued (in some cases, increased) agricultural output is the co-locating of solar ...

The Agrivoltaic Potential of Canada
Sustainability, 2023 Canada has committed to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by increasing the non-emitting share of electricity generation to 90% by 2030. As solar energy costs have plummeted, agrivoltaics (the co-development of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and agriculture) provide an economic path to these goals.

How to reconcile renewable energy and agricultural production in a drying world
Plants, People, Planet, 2023 Societal Impact Statement Renewable energies such as photovoltaics can mitigate climate change by replacing fossil fuels, but they will compete with other forms of land use when implemented in open space.
