Agrivoltaics for peppers

Scientists have built in India a 1. 8 kW agrivoltaic setup to grow peppers under the PV modules. The proposed project design is described as an agrivoltaic insect net house that could be use for all crops that require rigorous pest management. A research group from India's Vellore Institute of Technology has designed an agrivoltaic system incorporating an insect net to protect crops requiring pest management such as peppers. "Agrivoltaics may not be suitable for some crops that require rigorous pest management," the scientists said. "Normal agrivoltaic systems fail to control pests and insects, ...
