1,700 Sheep Under Solar Panels Enhances Clean Energy, Quality Of Wool

AUSTRALIA – It’s not every day that an experiment involving 1,700 merino sheep and solar panels makes headlines—but that’s exactly what’s happening in Australia. In a groundbreaking study, researchers have discovered that combining solar energy production with sheep grazing not only helps maintain clean energy sites, but may also enhance the quality of wool. Welcome to the world of agrivoltaics, where agriculture and technology come together in …

Study: Solar Sheep Have Better Wool

Glass Almanac: Agrivoltaics is the practice of using the same land for both farming and solar power generation. As the need for sustainable energy increases, so does the interest in efficient land use. Traditionally, one might think you need to choose between food or energy. But agrivoltaics offers a win-win solution, allowing farmers to raise crops or … Continue reading "Study: Solar Sheep Have Better Wool"
