Agrivoltaics can increase profitability of indoor farming agrotunnels
Researchers at Canada’s Western University have demonstrated that agrivoltaic installations can improve the profitability of indoor farming (IF) agrotunnels by reducing electricity costs.
AI Summary
Researchers at Western University in Canada analyzed photovoltaic‑powered indoor farming agrotunnels across six North American sites. They found that such systems could deliver returns on investment of up to 499 %, with payback periods under three years. The study highlighted basil prices and specific cultivation strategies as the main variables influencing profitability. No additional outcomes or future steps are reported.
