Double harvest: Vertical solar panels and crops thrive side by side
Aarhus UniversityPeer-Reviewed Publication
A new study from Aarhus University shows that bifacial, vertical solar panels in agricultural fields can generate clean electricity without reducing crop yields. And research shows that they are better received by the public than traditional solar parks. The research is part of the Hyperfarm project, which is funded by the EU's research and innovation framework programme, Horizon 2020.
