A sustainable approach that combines agricultural production and solar energy generation. This may involve installing solar panels over agricultural fields, creating dual land use. The panels provide shade to crops, reducing evaporation and heat stress, while simultaneously generating renewable energy. The panels can also be used to power pumps to circulate water in aquaponic systems or to pump nutrient-rich water solutions to vertical hydroponics systems. This innovative approach offers several benefits, including an increase in crop and fish productivity, it contributes to the expansion of renewable energy capacity, reducing dependence on fossil fuels. Agrophotovoltaics represents a promising solution to address the challenges of land scarcity, food and nutrition insecurity, and clean energy production in a mutually beneficial manner.
