By 2050, the global demand for food and energy is expected to grow by 70% and 50%, respectively, as a result of the increase of the world’s population. To keep up with the growing world population, significant changes have to take place in the agricultural sector regarding land and energy use. In this work, two developments in the agricultural sector are combined: the integration of photovoltaic (PV) modules in a horticultural system and the use of light emitting diodes (LEDs) as supplemental lighting source for crops. Four greenhouse systems having different configurations of these two technologies and a plant factory are designed. The performance of these LED-based agrivoltaic systems are analysed for the crops lettuce and tomato and for ...
