Crops can thrive under solar panels. In fact, the microclimate generated by the solar panels can create crops that are stronger, tastier, and healthier than crops grown with a traditional farming method. There is a common misconception that crops require access to full sunlight throughout the day.
Grapevines do very well under solar panels, which also improves the quality of the grape. Orchards under solar produce bountiful and healthier fruit. Japan has around 2,000 agrivoltaics farms growing over 120 crops, including most vegetables. Soft fruits benefit highly from the protection of solar panels.
Solar panels also protect crops from cold weather and create a favorable microclimate beneath them. To achieve success with agrivoltaics, careful consideration for solar panel placement is required. Grapevines do very well under solar panels, which also improves the quality of the grape.
