Solar Panels Can Cool Crops—and Workers
Source: Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems (JAMES) Photovoltaic technology, most commonly seen as the bulky solar panels used on solar farms, is expected to become a dominant energy source by 2050. But these panels are often installed on land that might otherwise be used to grow crops for feeding a burgeoning population. Agrivoltaics aims to solve this problem by planting crops around or underneath rows of solar panels, allowing for m…
The combination of growing crops and generating solar energy in one area, known as agrovoltaic, can effectively solve the problem of competition for land between the energy sector and the food supply sector.
