Agrivoltaics

Agrivoltaics is like having two things in one place: farming and using solar panels to make energy from the sun. It's like having a garden in your backyard and also having a pool to swim in!

In agrivoltaics, the solar panels are set up on structures above crops like tomatoes or lettuce. This way, the plants can grow underneath the solar panels, which provide shade to the crops, and also catch the sun's rays to make energy.

The solar panels also help to protect the crops from harsh weather conditions like heavy rain or too much sun. They act as a kind of umbrella, keeping the crops healthy and happy.

By combining farming and solar energy, we can create a sustainable system that helps the environment and benefits people. The farms can produce both food and clean energy, which is a win-win situation for everyone!

And the best part? You can do this at home too! So next time you plant some seeds in your garden, set up a solar panel nearby and see the magic happen!
