Exploring Agrivoltaics: A Pathway to Climate‐Resilient and Productive Land Use in Northern Bangladesh

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The growing demand for food, energy, and water in resource‐constrained regions intensifies land‐use conflicts, where solar photovoltaic (PV) expansion often competes with agriculture. Agrivoltaics, the co‐location of crop cultivation beneath PV systems, offers a potential dual‐use solution to enhance land efficiency. This study presents one of

High‐Mobility and Low Carrier Concentration Transparent Conducting Oxide Rear Contact for Bifacial CIGS Solar Cells

open access: yesProgress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 555-566, May 2026.
This study investigates high‐mobility, low carrier concentration (CC) transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) as back contacts in bifacial Cu (In, Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells. These TCOs enhance rear‐side light absorption in CIGS and external quantum efficiency, improving overall performance by offering high transparency, low reflectance, and maintaining ...

The Grid, the Land, and the Void: Sweden's Utility‐Scale Solar Expansion under Strategic Absence

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2026.
Sweden's utility‐scale solar sector is the fastest‐growing segment of deployment in the country yet operates without a national strategic vision. How do actors govern a rapidly scaling technology in the absence of formal direction? This study traces how feasibility, spatial legitimacy, and coordination are constructed in practice, and what this reveals

Maximizing Energy Generation in Agrivoltaic Systems: A Study of Bifacial and Monofacial Modules With Consideration of Module Height and Albedo Impact

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 1795-1807, April 2026.
This study evaluates the performance of bifacial and monofacial PV modules in agrivoltaic systems using PVsyst simulations. Real albedo measurements from a wheat field were incorporated to ensure realistic results. Bifacial modules demonstrated a 19.46% increase in energy yield compared to monofacial ones.
