In Tressere, a region in Southwest France, vines successfully grow beneath a canopy of solar panels. They are suspended high off the ground on steel racking, allowing workers to tend to
Customer Service
Results showed that shading from photovoltaic panels increased soil moisture and moderated soil temperature, thus benefiting crops. Vines beneath the panels yielded more grapes
