Ok, it's mostly done in photovoltaic plants (and has advantages for both sides, because it stops plants that could eventually overgrow the solar modules), but I don't think there's anything stopping solar collector plants from being used the same way...
- bpodgursky 4y agoYes, if you choose to use twice the acreage, you can have half the panel density.
- jonnycomputer 4y agoYes; but in some cases the shade provided by the solar panels can increase productivity of the land (e.g. better quality wool, crops that don't like full sun, or even to protect crops from excessive heat in these ever hotter days.
- 7952 4y agoThats just plain wrong. In this case the environment means grass + wild flowers + insects + birds eating insects + insects and fungus that lives in the soil. That all survives under the panels and is ok with some shade and cooling. In fact this is better for the soil than intensive agriculture. And all possible without reducing panel density.
