When the word "Renewable Energy" comes up, an average human will think of power generation/fuels for homes, industries, offices, automobiles etc. But little did we know that Solar power could be used to aid food and crop production through real time application known as "Greenhouse Integrated Photo Volataic Solar Modular Fittings."
Agricultural practice through Greenhouse Powered by solar energy is a rare one, it's a new and revolutionary step in applying modern technology to old systems. This comes as a solution to the Carbon Mono Oxide(Co) pollutions that traditional Greenhouses emits in planting processes which makes the efficiency questionable. Using GIPV- Greenhouse Integrated Photo Voltaic panels to cover/roof the greenhouse structures allows it serve dual functions aside from just providing energy. It supplies the neccessary cover for crops and plants, at the same time enabling adequate photosynthetic processes to take place; A very important process in plant cultivation.
MODE OF OPERATION
Prouction of Energy through the Greenhouse PV Modular fittings is an efficient means, it works by conversion of the solar power into Electric power at the same time; providing required light suitable for Photosynthesis for the plants and crops planted beneath the Solar modules i.e the special solar arrays of panels. This innovation ensures Greenhouse farmers to generate and consume Electrical energy and not at the expense of Agriculture produce.
Energy generated from the GIPV modules could be used to supply electricity to equipments like Sprayers, Sprinklers, Temperature control equipments for certain crops and plants, water pumps, Milking Machines, Shearers etc. A fantastic technology that helps in producing crops and as well supply power using the same "FOOTPRINT" and without affecting the safety of the enviroment(electrocution and sparks) and crop/food production output.

I am always fascinated by the use of renewable energy for crop production and having a greenhouse is certainly at the top of my bucket list.

It is interesting to read how technology is being used to generate electricity and improve photosynthetic process at the same time. This is quite revealing and educative as well.

I've been waiting for your post since sir. I really like the one you bring to us at the moment. This is a very good and innovative. Thanks for sharing this powerful post on how solar power can be converted and implemented in food and crop production.
I believe this innovation should have been started over times ago in some part of the world. I'm so excited to read this post because I learn much on it and got exposed to new innovation. Thanks @peakreal1

Wow ... This is a very great innovation and the usage of sunlight is a form of energy that can't he used up (forgotten the terminology though lol) so once set up such a technology it will be there for life and such can't be exhausted ... Thanks for sharing this educative post sir

This is the first time i have visited your blog, sir. And i must confess that i don't regret it all. I will be having my first greenhouse experience in my school this school, and with such insight you gave, i am sure i will be ahead in my class.
Before now, i had been hearing about green house from my senior colleagues but never knew it was such a big deal.
Thanks for sharing this.
