Land Use and Economic Trade‐Offs of Large‐Scale Solar in Agricultural Regions: Marginal National Impacts, Significant Regional Variations

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, Volume 70, Issue 2, Page 395-409, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Large‐scale solar generation is critical for energy transitions. In Australia, increased solar production to meet emission targets means its land footprint increasingly competes with agricultural land. Understanding the scale and location of agricultural land use change and potential profitability losses from large‐scale solar farms is ...

Preface

AgriVoltaics Conference Proceedings
The sixth AgriVoltaics World Conference, held in Freiburg, Germany, from July 1–3, 2025, marked a new milestone for the global agrivoltaics community. With more than 500 participants (around 430 on site and 70 online), it was the largest conference in ...

Acceptance of AgriVoltaics - A Multi-Stakeholder Survey for a German AgriVoltaic System in Fruit Farming

AgriVoltaics Conference Proceedings
Public perception of Agri-PV cannot be reliably assessed at this time, in part because the agricultural context and appearance of each Agri-PV system varies widely. Therefore, within the research project "Agri-PV Fruit Growing", a social impact analysis of Agri-PV in a fruit growing region (predominantly apple growing) was carried out in May 2021 and ...

Achieving Net‐Zero in the Electricity Sector in China by 2050 Considering Environmental and Economic Objectives

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 3, March 2026.
China's pathways to net‐zero electricity by 2050 are evaluated using life cycle environmental and economic assessment across six scenarios. Results show that a renewables‐only grid offers the best overall environmental performance and lowest cost, but increases burdens on metal depletion, land use, and ecotoxicity.

Economics of land‐based carbon mitigation

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 108, Issue 2, Page 443-461, March 2026.
Abstract Agricultural land holds tremendous potential to contribute to net zero greenhouse gas emission goals by providing low carbon renewable energy to displace fossil fuels and by serving as a sink for sequestering carbon in the soil with climate‐smart practices. This potential is, however, far from being realized.

Assessing the Impact of Agrivoltaic Systems on Pasture Plant and Soil Microarthropod Communities

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Agrivoltaic systems (AVS) integrate renewable energy production with agricultural use, creating novel microclimatic gradients that can affect ecosystem structure and function. However, the ecological consequences of these gradients on vegetation composition and soil biological quality remain poorly understood, particularly in pasture‐based AVS

Estimating the Deterministic and Stochastic Levelized Cost of the Energy of Fence-Type Agrivoltaics

Energies
Agrivoltaics can be used to supply energy and produce agricultural products in order to meet the growing demand for energy and food. The amount of power generation is affected by the solar panel direction, spacing, tilt, and panel technology; however ...
