Photovoltaic power generation technology for smart agriculture systems: A review

Agriculture is an important source of human food. As the cultivated area decreases and energy consumption increases, people are encouraged to look for alternative renewable energy sources Photovoltaic power generation technology has been mature and applied in various fields. The application of smart agriculture improves the output of agriculture and increases land utilization. The combination of photovoltaic power generation technology and smart agriculture not only solves energy problems, but also agriculture. This review summarizes the problems and solutions to the development of photovoltaic power generation technology in various smart agriculture applications, such as irrigation, greenhouses and farms. It think about how to integrate photovoltaic power generation technology into smart agriculture system ecosystem management mode more effectively. Therefore, it is provided updated goals and directions in the application research of photovoltaic technology applied to the optimal combination of smart agriculture.
