Evaluación de la implementación de sistemas agrovoltaicos para la mejora de los cultivos en zonas andinas ecuatoriales

Abstract

The present work evaluates the implementation of an agrovoltaic system insoled from the electrical network applied to the optimization of land use for cultivations productivity. Through the generation of solar energy, an irrigation and a monitoring system is incorporated for the cultivations. With this study, the feasibility of the project evaluated from the technical and economic point of view. The design of the photovoltaic system as well as that of the pumping system has been determined according to the solar and water resource. The results of this project indicate that it is viable to implement environmentally friendly systems, since the generation of the electricity with photovoltaic solar energy does not imply losing cultivation areas.
