Agrivoltaics, the integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems with agricultural practices, presents a promising opportunity for sustainable energy and food production. This paper presents a case study aimed at closely examining the design considerations involved in integrating PV technology into greenhouses, with a focus on addressing the energy-food nexus and providing a potential solution to mitigate the competition between energy and food production. Through extensive data collection and analysis, valuable insights and guidance are obtained to contribute to the future development of design methodologies for agrivoltaic systems. Key findings from this case study reveal the influence of PV integration on microclimate parameters such as temperature and photosynthetically active radiation, as well as crop yield.

摘要

Agrivoltaics, the integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems with agricultural practices, presents a promising opportunity for sustainable energy and food production. This paper presents a case study aimed at closely examining the design considerations involved in integrating PV technology into greenhouses, with a focus on addressing the energy-food nexus and providing a potential solution to mitigate the competition between energy and food production. Through extensive data collection and analysis, valuable insights and guidance are obtained to contribute to the future development of design methodologies for agrivoltaic systems. Key findings from this case study reveal the influence of PV integration on microclimate parameters such as temperature and photosynthetically active radiation, as well as crop yield.
