In recent years, the renewable energy sector has witnessed a groundbreaking trend that's reshaping our approach to land use and sustainable development. This innovative concept, known as agrivoltaics or agrophotovoltaics, combines solar energy production with agricultural activities on the same land. As the world grapples with the dual challenges of food security and clean energy transition, this ingenious solution is gaining traction across the globe. The Basics of Agrivoltaics Agrivoltaics involves the co-location of solar panels and crops on the same piece of land. This dual-use approach maximizes land efficiency by producing both electricity and food simultaneously. Solar panels are typically mounted several feet above the ground, allowing crops to grow underneath and between the panel rows. This setup not only optimizes land use but also creates a symbiotic relationship between energy production and agriculture. Benefits of Agrivoltaic Systems 1. Increased Land Productivity...
