Minnesota project pairs farming with solar power
Original: Minnesota agrivoltaics project shows promise of mixing farming, solar power
A Minnesota agrivoltaics project is showing that crops and solar panels can share the same land. By mounting panels high enough for farm equipment and crops to fit beneath, the project aims to generate renewable energy while keeping farmland in production, offering a possible model for reducing land-use conflicts over the expanding solar industry.
Why now: Interest in agrivoltaics is growing as the US expands solar power and seeks ways to avoid taking farmland out of production.
