With the continuous advancement of solar energy production, mathematical models for predicting the effects of planting agricultural crops under PV panels that are solely used for solar power generation would be beneficial in order to shorten the time required prior to practical implementation.
Crops suitable for planting under fixed PV systems, along with the crop growth parameters, should be identified. Agrivoltaic systems must water the plants on a daily basis. Material corrosion should be monitored since moisture under the solar panel may affect the plant structure.
PV power plants account for 94.20 % of ground-mounted PV power plants, with the remainder made up of solar roof tops (5.58 %; Europe, 2018) and solar floating panels (0.22 %; Gamarra and Ronk, 2019). The total required land area for ground-mounted PV power plants is 2201.890 ha (Ong et al., 2013).
Photovoltaic (PV) panels reduced plant species diversity. PV panels increased vegetation biomass. PV panels increased soil water content and decreased soil available phosphorus content. Soil water content affected plant species diversity on the PV farm. Soil available phosphorus content affected plant community distribution.
