Abstract

Property value models are used to examine how utility-scale, ground-mount solar farms affect nearby agricultural land values. Results indicate that solar farms do not have direct positive or negative spillover effects on nearby agricultural land values. However, results also suggest that solar farm construction may indirectly affect agricultural land values by signaling the land’s suitability for future solar development. Specifically, results indicate that proximity of agricultural land to electric transmission lines may be positively valued after a solar farm is constructed nearby.

公用事业规模的太阳能农场和农业用地价值

房地产价值模型用于研究公用事业规模、地面太阳能农场如何影响附近的农业土地价值。结果表明，太阳能发电场对附近农业用地价值没有直接的正向或负向溢出效应。然而，研究结果也表明，太阳能发电场的建设可能会间接影响农业土地的价值，因为这表明土地适合未来的太阳能开发。具体而言，研究结果表明，在附近建造太阳能发电场后，农田与输电线路的接近程度可能会得到积极评价。

期刊介绍： Land Economics is dedicated to the study of land use, natural resources, public utilities, housing, and urban land issues. Established in 1925 by the renowned economist and founder of the American Economic Association, Richard T. Ely at the University of Wisconsin, Land Economics has consistently published innovative, conceptual, and empirical research of direct relevance to economists. Each issue brings the latest results in international applied research on such topics as transportation, energy, urban and rural land use, housing, environmental quality, public utilities, and natural resources.
