Equity and Justice Implications for the Development and Deployment of Agrivoltaics Systems

AgriVoltaics Conference Proceedings
This paper addresses the equity and justice issues that are directly related to agrivoltaics, largely through the lens of farmers and other rural stakeholders, but also to some extent through the eyes of commercial developers.

The Agrivoltaic Potential of Türkiye

Bitlis Eren Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Dergisi
Agrivoltaic systems, also known as agrivoltaics, represent an innovative approach that combines agricultural activities with solar energy production on the same land. This concept emerged as a solution to the increasing demand for land for food production and the increasing demand for land for energy production.

The Italian Network for Sustainable Agrivoltaics

AgriVoltaics Conference Proceedings
In Italy, agrivoltaic systems (APVs) are seen as a driver for getting the national targets for photovoltaics (PV) and decarbonization, to enhance innovation in the agricultural sector, and reducing the energy costs on farms, overcoming land and landscape preservation issues, which cause bottlenecks in the permitting process of PV in agricultural areas.
