Photovoltaic agriculture, the combination of photovoltaic power generation and agricultural activities, is a natural response to supply the green and sustainable electricity for agriculture.
Agrivoltaic farming could be a solution to not just one but both of these problems. It uses the shaded space underneath solar panels to grow crops. This increases land-use efficiency, as it lets solar farms and agriculture share ground, rather than making them compete against one another.
There are several main application modes of photovoltaic agriculture such as photovoltaic agricultural greenhouse, photovoltaic breeding, photovoltaic wastewater purification, photovoltaic water pumping and new type rural solar power station.
Photovoltaic technology PV technology converts sunlight directly into electricity using semiconductor materials. The PV effect is a process in which two dissimilar materials in close contact produce an electrical voltage when struck by light or other radiant energy .
For a holistic understanding of the acceptance effects of solar power production in agrivoltaic systems, it is essential to reflect that technologies are always embedded in a socio-technical human-technology-environment system, that is, interact with both the groups of actors involved and the regional setting.
