Exploration of the European agrivoltaics landscape in the context of global climate change
Abstract
To combat growing climate change and energy shortages, the development of sustainable energy sources as an alternative to fossil fuels has become an important option for Europe. Agrivoltaics have been successfully built in some countries, showing a wide range of application prospects. In this paper, the advantages and limitations as well as the impacts of agrivoltaics are studied and summarized through survey method, case study method, literature research method and descriptive research method, and the suitability of agrivoltaics for the EU region is studied and explored. The results show that agrivoltaics can maintain or improve the ecology to solve the energy problem and achieve economic benefits. Our results provide a reference for the exploration of the European agrivoltaics landscape in the context of global climate change.
