About this document
Solar Radiation in PV Greenhouses by Edgar Santiago Flores Sacsi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates the solar radiation distribution in a greenhouse with 50% of its roof covered by photovoltaic (PV) panels, revealing a 64% reduction in solar light availability and significant shading effects on crop productivity, particularly for tomatoes. The research highlights the need for careful design of PV greenhouses to balance energy production and agricultural output, as well as the potential for supplementary lighting to mitigate some of the negative impacts.
