Technical FAQs 4

What is a solar greenhouse?

Solar greenhouses are the enclosures where crops, vege tables, or flowers are provided proper environment under adverse climatic conditions for plant grow~h and production. Certainly all greenhouses receive necessary sunlight from the sun required for photosynthesis and also supplementary heat during cold months from sun.

Do solar greenhouses perform well under different climate scenarios?

Solar greenhouses are currently the most energy-intensive agricultural sector. In literature, there is no worldwide mapping of solar greenhouse performance under different climate scenarios. This study analyzes the performance of a Venlo solar greenhouse for 48 localities around the world.

What is a greenhouse integrated PV (gipv) module?

Get in touch! Traditional greenhouses rely on external fossil fuel derived energy sources to power lighting, heating and forced cooling. Specially designed BiPV solar glass modules for greenhouses, Heliene’s Greenhouse Integrated PV (GiPV) modules offer a sustainable alternative with no additional racking or support required.

Are solar greenhouses a viable alternative to horticultural production?

Solar greenhouses currently constitute the most energy-intensive branch of agriculture; the energy inputs (fuels and electricity) to meet the heat needs of greenhouses have a major impact on the cost and environmental sustainability of horticultural and floricultural production.
