6 FAQs about [Agrivoltaic solutions]
What is agrivoltaics and how can it benefit the solar industry?
For the solar industry, agrivoltaics has the potential to facilitate siting of solar installations, improve solar PV panel performance by cooling the panels, and lower operations and maintenance costs by limiting the need for mowing.
Who owns agrivoltaic solutions?
Lewis owns and operates a commercial sheep operation as well as being a co-founder and owner of Agrivoltaic Solutions, which currently grazes solar assets for 9 different firms in the Northeastern U.S. Lewis is a founding board member of the American Solar Grazing Association.
Could agrivoltaics be a solution?
Combining agriculture and solar on the same piece of land might be a solution, which is why DOE is funding $15 million in research on how agrivoltaics could work for farmers, the solar industry, and communities. Agrivoltaics is still a nascent business model.
Are agrivoltaic systems a solution to agricultural lands and forest invasion?
The rate of solar power generation is increasing globally at a significant increase in the net electricity demand, leading to competition for agricultural lands and forest invasion. Agrivoltaic systems, which integrate photovoltaic (PV) systems with crop production, are potential solutions to this situation.
Is agrivoltaics more expensive than traditional solar development?
Agrivoltaics is not always more expensive than traditional solar development, but certain configurations can be more complex for planning and permitting. A successful agrivoltaics project requires two or more groups who often have very different priorities—the farmer or land manager and the solar developer—to find a solution that works for both.
How agrivoltaic systems should be implemented?
Agrivoltaic systems must water the plants on a daily basis. Material corrosion should be monitored since moisture under the solar panel may affect the plant structure. Appropriate agrivoltaic policies should be implemented to reduce competition for agricultural lands and forest invasion and to also support local people.
