Technical FAQs 3

Is it efficient to grow crops under solar panels?

Growing commercial crops under acres of solar panels is a potentially efficient use of agricultural land that can boost food production and improve panel longevity.

Can you grow crops under solar panels?

It’s possible to co-locate solar and crops into “agrivoltaic systems,” which can feature grazing grass, corn grown for biogas, and even lettuce and tomatoes that may flourish under solar panels. Other crops could even be grown under semi-transparent solar panels.

How can farmers benefit from solar energy?

There are other ways for farmers to benefit from solar energy. “The Renewable Electricity Support Scheme (RESS) has raised interest among solar developers looking to acquire land for large-scale solar farms, and they are offering rents of typically €850-€1,200 per hectare, index-linked for 25-30 years,” he explains.
