A recent research reveals that lettuce can be grown in greenhouses that strain wavelengths of light used to generate solar power, demonstrating the usefulness of using transparent photovoltaic panels in greenhouses to produce electrical power.

Lots of greenhouses can end up being power neutral by utilizing transparent solar panels to collect power - mainly from the wavelengths of light that plants do not utilize for photosynthesis. Those are the searchings for of a brand-new modeling research study performed by design, plant biology as well as physics scientists at North Carolina State University.
