Optimized semi-transparent PV greenhouse design increases energy output by 20.1%
Reported bypv magazine ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
Researchers from Qatar University developed a new semi-transparent photovoltaic greenhouse design that increased annual energy output by 20.1% and outperformed conventional greenhouse geometries by up to 56.86% by optimizing PV surface allocation to south-facing roofs and walls.
The design is optimized for Qatar's climate; performance in other regions may differ.
