Abstract

The concept of agrivoltaic, combining agriculture and solar photovoltaic system, is ideal for populous countries like India as it provides access to eco-friendly power and crop production from the same land. The main objective of the study was to evaluate the performance of agrivoltaic systems for different geometry of solar photovoltaic strings and their suitability for agricultural practices for the greengram (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek) crop under North-Gujarat agro-climatic conditions of India. Eight equal-capacity strings with different geometry were designed to evaluate power generation and crop production beneath the strings. The experiment involved eight strings taken as eight treatments and the traditional system of greengram (V. radiata L. Wilczek) cultivation practices is taken as the ninth treatment. The greengram (V. radiata L. Wilczek) was shown and all other cultural practices was kept same upto grain yields. The results revealed that 10.5 feet height string with continuous solar panel pattern) provided the highest gross income (Rs. 24,364.00) from power generation and greengram (V. radiata L. Wilczek) yield. In terms of net realization, a 6.0-feet string with continuous solar panel pattern provided the highest net return of Rs. 12,417.00, as the capital cost was less for the system. Treatment-5, which involved transparent panels, was found to be better for the photosynthesis process of the greengram (V. radiata L. Wilczek) crop, as it provided the highest yield (12.99 kg) under the agrivoltaic system.

绿色发电(Vigna radiata L. Wilczek)与太阳能发电协同作用的农业光伏发电系统性能评价
农业和太阳能光伏系统相结合的农业光伏概念,对于印度这样的人口众多的国家来说是理想的,因为它提供了从同一块土地上获得环保电力和作物生产的途径。该研究的主要目的是评估在印度北古吉拉特邦农业气候条件下,不同几何形状的太阳能光伏串的农业光伏系统的性能及其对绿格兰(Vigna radiata L. Wilczek)作物农业实践的适用性。设计了8个不同几何形状的等容量管柱,以评估管柱下的发电量和作物产量。试验共设8串作为8个处理,以传统的绿姜栽培方法作为9个处理。显示了绿图(V. radiata L. Wilczek),所有其他文化实践都保持不变,直到粮食产量。结果显示,10.5英尺高的绳子(连续的太阳能电池板图案)提供了最高的发电总收入(24,364.00卢比)和greengram (V. radiata L. Wilczek)产量。就净实现而言,由于该系统的资本成本较低,带有连续太阳能电池板图案的6.0英尺细绳的净回报率最高,为12,417.00卢比。研究发现,采用透明面板的处理-5更适合绿绿(V. radiata L. Wilczek)作物的光合作用过程,因为它在农业光伏系统下提供了最高的产量(12.99公斤)。

期刊介绍: Energy Science & Engineering is a peer reviewed, open access journal dedicated to fundamental and applied research on energy and supply and use. Published as a co-operative venture of Wiley and SCI (Society of Chemical Industry), the journal offers authors a fast route to publication and the ability to share their research with the widest possible audience of scientists, professionals and other interested people across the globe. Securing an affordable and low carbon energy supply is a critical challenge of the 21st century and the solutions will require collaboration between scientists and engineers worldwide. This new journal aims to facilitate collaboration and spark innovation in energy research and development. Due to the importance of this topic to society and economic development the journal will give priority to quality research papers that are accessible to a broad readership and discuss sustainable, state-of-the art approaches to shaping the future of energy. This multidisciplinary journal will appeal to all researchers and professionals working in any area of energy in academia, industry or government, including scientists, engineers, consultants, policy-makers, government officials, economists and corporate organisations.
