Scientists have built in India a 1. 8 kW agrivoltaic setup to grow peppers under the PV modules. The proposed project design is described as an agrivoltaic insect net house that could be use for all crops that require rigorous pest management. A research group from India's Vellore Institute of. . Several projects across the country are researching the synergistic benefits of co-locating photovoltaic arrays on vegetable and fruit farms. Potential benefits to the crops will derive from lower plant temperatures, reduced sunburn and improved fruit set. It works by placing solar panels high above crops.
