About

SYMBIOSYST investigates innovative systems to go beyond the idea of solar energy production and agriculture as two separate sectors, and find a new synergy where land & crops and photovoltaics can have a mutually beneficial relationship.

The project develops different PV solutions for open field and greenhouse agriculture and their demonstration in four agricultural scenarios, in three different Countries.
