The non-profit trade association will help landowners make informed decisions about leasing land for renewable energy projects.
Research conducted at the oldest agrivoltaic research site in the United States found year-to-year weather variability impacts agrivoltaic crop production, emphasizing the importance in conducting studies across multiple years.
The Imperial Irrigation District noted that 13,000 acres of fertile land have been converted for solar, but it noted renewable energy is an important part of the region’s present and future.
The Lime Kiln solar project, part of the Maryland Community Solar Program, will serve area residents while also providing sheep pasture and pollinator habitat.
Researchers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory grew tomatoes under translucent solar panels, which could play a promising role in agrivoltaics.
The scale of livestock grazing in agrivoltaic installations is much larger than previously understood, found the first solar grazing census by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and the American Solar Grazing Association.
Iowa State University is using a $1.8 million grant to study whether higher solar arrays create better growing conditions for horticultural crops and beekeeping production.
Arkansas could double its total energy generation with solar and still only require a very small fraction of the land to do so, according to analysis by the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture.
Installing agrivoltaics on previously irrigated land could help minimize the losses from reducing groundwater use, according to a new study published in the Journal of the American Water Resources Association.
In its latest monthly column for pv magazine, IEA PVPS provides a comprehensive overview of the recently released edition of the “Dual Land Use for Agriculture and Solar Power Production: Overview and Performance of Agrivoltaic Systems” report. The 91-page handbook was developed by IEA PVPS Task 13.
