Solar & Photovoltaic Greenhouses

April 28 @ 2:00 pm 3:00 pm EDT

Greenhouse agriculture is expanding rapidly around the world, but also typically comes with a high energy and resource use. Incorporation of solar into and onto greenhouse production can produce benefits both to the crops produced, and the environment. In this session, we explore applications of agrivoltaics to greenhouse production.

Speakers:

  • David Mekler, CEO of México Solar. (in Spanish)
  • Murat Kacira, Director of the Controlled Environment Agricultural Center and Professor of Biosystems Engineering at the University of Arizona. (in English)
