OverviewTerminologySystem designImpacts and interactionsEconomicsHistorySee alsoFurther reading

Agrivoltaics (also called agrophotovoltaics, agrisolar, or dual-use solar) is the dual use of land for solar energy and agriculture. Many agricultural activities can be combined with solar, including crops, livestock, greenhouses, and wild plants to support pollinators. Agrivoltaic systems can include solar panels between crops, elevated above crops, or on greenhouses.
