A Perfect Combination: Photovoltaic Power Generation and Livestock Farming

Photovoltaics Agriculture01
New Energy + New Agriculture
: Photovoltaics breathe new life into the most traditional form of agriculture in the current wave of rapid development in the solar energy industry. Photovoltaic agriculture plays a crucial role and holds vast development prospects.

What is Photovoltaic Agriculture?
In the process of agricultural production, the management model involves scientifically designing and integrating photovoltaics onto the infrastructure of agricultural facilities (or units) to achieve multi-purpose land use and increase the output per unit of land. During the design, construction, and operation of photovoltaic power stations, space is reserved for the necessary needs of agricultural planting and breeding, ensuring that the physiological requirements of plants and animals are met. This achieves the synergy of agriculture and photovoltaics, integrating and innovating ecological and circular agricultural technology models to provide strong technical support for sustainable agricultural development.

Photovoltaics + Vegetables/Fruits
By combining rooftop photovoltaic power generation with agriculture under the shelter, the agricultural industry undergoes a transformation and upgrade. For crops, shade-tolerant vegetables or plants that thrive in low light conditions can be cultivated, or the space can be utilized for agrotourism.
Photovoltaics + Mushrooms

Photovoltaics + Mushrooms

Planting fast-growing plants in open areas helps in the recycling of abandoned resources, addressing the environmental pressure of discarded mushroom bags.
Photovoltaics animal

Photovoltaics + Animal Husbandry
Photovoltaics integrated with animal husbandry can involve free-range farming or the construction of animal husbandry sheds. Various animals such as sheep, pigs, chickens, cows, rabbits, primarily herbivores, can be raised.
Photovoltaics Fisheries

Photovoltaics + Fisheries (Aqua-Photovoltaic Complementarity)
Utilizing the vast area of fish ponds by installing solar panels for power generation can significantly increase profits compared to traditional aquaculture. Aqua-photovoltaic complementarity can be implemented in enclosed, open, floating, or spanning systems, typically in lakes, rivers, ponds, streams, collapsed coal mine areas, or rice fields used for fish farming.
PhotovoltaicsForestry

Photovoltaics + Forestry
Forest photovoltaics involve horticulture, trees, and fruit trees. The relaxation of forestry policies by the national forestry administration provides some space for this model. Suitable for planting shade-tolerant, shade-loving flowers, and tree seedlings in photovoltaic greenhouses, both enclosed and open.

Photovoltaics + Medicinal Herbs
Cultivating medicinal herbs in conjunction with photovoltaic agriculture is well-suited, especially in regions with shade-loving medicinal herbs that thrive in cool, humid mountain areas.

Ecological Photovoltaics
Developing ecological photovoltaics on idle land such as barren hills, wastelands, saline-alkali land, and abandoned coal mine areas can yield both environmental and economic benefits. It allows these abandoned lands to recover while generating clean energy, achieving multiple goals simultaneously.
Photovoltaics + Water Conservancy

Photovoltaics + Water Conservancy
In remote rural areas, especially in mountainous regions and islands, integrating photovoltaics with water conservancy promotes the development of modern agricultural water conservancy technologies such as mechanical and electrical drainage and water-saving irrigation. This aims to achieve the conservation of manpower, financial resources, material resources, and electricity. Photovoltaic water conservancy encompasses photovoltaic lifting systems (or photovoltaic pumping systems), farmland drainage and irrigation, water-saving irrigation and control systems, photovoltaic domestic water, photovoltaic seawater desalination, photovoltaic wastewater treatment, among other areas. The scope is extensive.
