In northern Germany, Vattenfall is proving that farmland can produce both food and clean energy. As one of the largest Agri-PV project in Europe to date, it integrates solar panels with agriculture, boosting renewable energy production while preserving farmland for crops and livestock. In the village of Tützpatz in northeast Germany, home to fewer than … Continue reading Farming and photovoltaica solar energy: a win-win solution

New research sheds light on how solar photovoltaics (PV) and agriculture can coexist
Scientists from Swansea University have developed a new tool to help identify optimal photovoltaic (PV) materials capable of maximizing crop growth while generating solar power. In a recent study published in Solar RRL, academics from the University’s Department of Physics have been exploring the effect of semi-transparent PV materials placed over crops – an exemplary … Continue reading New research sheds light on how solar photovoltaics (PV) and agriculture can coexist
