Agrovoltaic Systems for Crop Improvement in Equatorial Andean Regions

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

Abstract

The current study evaluates the deployment of a grid-independent agrovoltaic system for maximizing land utilization and crop productivity. Through the utilization of solar energy, an integrated irrigation and monitoring system is incorporated to enhance crop growth. The project’s feasibility is evaluated from both technical and economic perspectives. The design of the photovoltaic system and the pumping system is customized to optimize the efficient utilization of solar and water resources. The findings of this research demonstrate the viability of adopting an environmentally friendly approach. The utilization of photovoltaic solar energy for electricity generation can coexist and complement each other.
