Study: Perovskite tandem solar in farming could cut US agricultural water use by 8.4 billion cubic meters annually

Researchers evaluated “farm-to-fork” life-cycle impacts of agrivoltaic lettuce systems using perovskite–silicon and perovskite–perovskite tandem PV, comparing them with conventional silicon PV across major US growing regions. The study finds that integrating advanced tandem solar with farming can…
