Volume 2635: AgriVoltaics2021 Conference

Summary of this volume: The AgriVoltaics Conference was launched in 2020 as the first international conference on Agrivoltaics. Taking place annually, the second edition, AgriVoltaics2021, was hosted by the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE in Freiburg in an online format. Agrivoltaics combines the agricultural use of land with the production of electric energy by photovoltaics. It provides the chance to establish solutions for production of food crop and, at the same time, electricity generation under consideration of soil protection and water savings. It thus allows a powerful solution to several issues arising with climate change.

These proceedings will be of interest to: researchers from PV and agriculture (including agronomy, biology and hydrology) and those working "in between"; companies such as PV module, mounting systems and tracker manufacturers, EPC companies, renewable energy producers, as well as those providing farm machinery equipment and seed producers; conventional and organic farming associations, agricultural and agroforestry federations, and similar stakeholder groups; and experts from politics and finance open for innovative and future-oriented ideas.
