This study investigates the performance of agrivoltaic systems employing bifacial photovoltaic modules. A comparison between yield in Sweden and Italy was carried out. Three agrivoltaic system designs were evaluated: vertical fixed, single-axis tracker, and dual-axis tracker. The results showed that the specific production varied between 1090 to 1440 kWh/kWp/yr in Sweden and 1584 to 2112 kWh/kWp/yr in Italy, where the lowest production was obtained with the vertical fixed agrivoltaic system while the highest production was obtained with the dual-axis tracking agrivoltaic system. The vertical fixed design had a higher electricity production during low solar elevation angles, while the single-axis and dual-axis tracking designs had significantly higher power production during mid-day. The electricity production gain using a dual-axis tracker design was mostly during mid-day, but the increase compared to the single-axis tracker was only 1-2%. The study concludes that low-height, fixed agrivoltaic systems without tracking are well-suited for high-latitude countries like Sweden, while elevated systems with tracker solutions are more suitable for locations like Italy. The findings suggest that the performance of agrivoltaic systems with bifacial photovoltaic modules is highly dependent on geographical location and the specific characteristics of the crops grown beneath them. |
