New Legal Framework of Agrivoltaics in Germany

AgriVoltaics Conference Proceedings
In Germany, numerous amendments have been made in the last year which are intended to take into account the special features of agrivoltaic systems. This is very welcome. Nevertheless, some legal challenges remain. In order to advance the technology and
