Description
The Green Morocco Plan (PMV) has invested in making agriculture the engine of economic and social development, transforming the agricultural sector into a modern, competitive and inclusive sector [1]. However, strongly depends on a very erratic rainfall. In addition, Morocco is among the countries most highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, as it is going through an exceptional period marked by drought.
Agri Voltaic (APV) system combines solar photovoltaic modules (PV) with a crop field in the same land area. The APV can create a microclimate that is favorable for crops growth, and this may improve the crop yield, reduce water consumption and produce energy.
APV can be considered as one the strategic tools to confront the impacts of climate change and water stress on the agriculture sector, contribute to sustainable agriculture and the transition to renewable energies.
