U.K. researchers have developed a way to optimize urban rooftop use with solar PV and agriculture.Scientists at the Imperial College of London and the University of Aberdeen have proposed a new way to optimize urban rooftop usage, while also providing a choice between rooftop agriculture and rooftop PV power generation. The advantage of rooftop PV would be to reduce reliance on power from the grid. Rooftop agriculture, meanwhile, could offer additional economic benefits, such as mitigating carbon emissions and lowering the need to heat and cool buildings. The scientists proposed a method that ...Den vollständigen Artikel lesen ...
