6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic panel breeding greenhouse design]

Can traditional PV systems be used for greenhouse application?

The use of traditional PV systems for greenhouse application has to take into account their integration on existing structures and glazing, as well as the trade-off between PV and plant requirements for the respective electrical and crop production.

What is the energy performance of a PV greenhouse?

Generally, the energy performance of a PV greenhouse contains not only PV electricity production and interior irradiance, but also the thermal behavior, plant production, and electricity consumption. The model can be made even more comprehensive by including e.g. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models and crop models . 5. Conclusions

Can photovoltaics be used in greenhouses?

The integration of photovoltaics (PV) into greenhouses is analyzed. Greenhouse energy demands, PV performances and effects on crop growth are reported. The application of organic, dye-sensitized and perovskite solar cells is described. The new PV technologies can promote sustainable, self-powered and smart greenhouses.

How can PV technology improve the sustainability of greenhouses?

The new PV technologies can promote sustainable, self-powered and smart greenhouses. Reducing the energy demand and dependency on fossil fuels is crucial for improving the sustainability of greenhouses, which are the most energy intensive systems in the agricultural sector.

What is a self-powered PV greenhouse?

A well-designed PV greenhouse can achieve the internal energy balance, i.e. the photovoltaic power generation is capable to cover the total energy consumption of daily operation, or even have extra electricity that can be sold to the electric power company. Such an ideal self-powered greenhouse can be called as “zero-energy greenhouse” .

How to regulate the daily operation of the PV greenhouse?

Four sun-tracking methods (closed, quasi-perpendicular sun tracking, no-shading, and open) are proposed to regulate the daily operation of the PV greenhouse with determined PV layouts. Dynamic positions of PV modules by different sun-tracking methods are derived as the functions of the solar positions.
