Agrivoltaics is the co-location of agricultural activities within a solar array whereby the microclimates of the solar panels impact the growth, health, and production of crops and livestock. The Colorado Agrivoltaic Learning Center is providing a series of discussions about agrivoltaics highlighting various professionals engaged in or adjacent to the field of agrivoltaics. We center our discussions on the outlook for agrivoltaics specifically in Colorado, though certain aspects of agrivoltaic designs or operations can be extrapolated to other areas of the country. In this discussion, Nick DiDomenico and Amy Scanes-Wolfe of Drylands Agroecology Research, and Duncan Gilchrist with The Nature Conservancy, will join us to discuss findings from their project to retrofit an existing solar array with agricultural activity. Each of our guests will speak for around 10-15 minutes before we open up for questions from the attendees. Total run time of this webinar will be no more than 90 minutes.
