Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems convert sunlight directly into electricity. By connecting to a farm’s electrical system, the energy produced using solar PV can be used to meet power demands including lighting and electrical farm equipment. Any surplus energy generated by the system can exported to the National Grid for payment. Alternatively, the system can be installed with a battery component, allowing excess power to be stored and used later, for example to support night-time operations.
