Abstract

Construction of PV support bases characterized by the fact that their height is of the order of 2.0 m on the south side of the PV and with a longitudinal distance between them of the order of 2.5 - 3.5 m - without this being binding - which will allow cultivation of the soil using motorized means such as tractors for plowing or other means for harvesting.

CO-PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS

AND ELECTRICITY FROM THE SUN

In recent years, much has been heard and many mistakes have been made regarding the installation of PV parks in "high productivity fields", essentially canceling their main reason for existence, which is to grow them for the production of food for people, animals and birds.

When the Creator of the earth, shaped its surface into mountains, rivers, forests and productive lands for food, he knew what he was doing!

Due to my long professional activity (almost 45 years!) and my love for the environment, renewable energy sources and the development of technologies to protect agricultural crops from radiation frost (radiation frost - Dil. Open. OBI), after studying the problem I found that his solution is very simple. We can not only maintain the productivity of the soil - while also generating electricity from the sun - but also expand it with new crops!

AGRO-SOL ENERGY

Technology Description

It is known that PV panels convert the sun's radiation (RADIATION) into electrical energy and not heat, achieving maximum efficiency when the sun's rays strike their surface vertically. This cannot be completely achieved even with mobile bases, which require additional construction and maintenance costs, since the earth is constantly moving vertically and horizontally in relation to the fixed position of the sun.

On the other hand, the installation of PV parks on the ground takes place - for reasons of cost - at a low height from it, with the result that on the one hand it is not possible to cultivate it and on the other hand it either pollutes the environment due to the spraying with harmful substances but also to add a cost for the destruction of natural vegetation - which could be food for animals and birds - or for natural vegetation to cover the PV panels, if not removed, reducing their efficiency! In addition, when the wind blows, the shadow of the vegetation moves over the surface of the PV panels, resulting in the multiplication of their surface, which becomes useless. The above results from my many years of experience in this subject. That is why I come to the simplest solution to the problem, which not only results in the field remaining exploitable and the PV panels not being shaded by any vegetation, yielding the maximum possible yield, but also in adding new crops.

The present invention therefore basically consists in the construction of PV support bases at such a height from the ground and at such a distance between them, that allows the cultivation of the soil using motorized means such as tractors for plowing or other means for harvesting.

On the southern imaginary wall (fig. 2) formed by the bases, a metal or plastic mesh like the one placed in the fencing of fields or plots will be supported. This will serve for, along the bases, planting climbing plants or flowers.

It is estimated that a longitudinal distance between the PV supports of the order of 2.5 - 3.5 m without this being binding - given the variety of crops

- and a style of the order of 2.0 m on the south side of the PV to allow the movement of workers or machines, (fig.1). Any additional cost of the bases due to its increased style from the ground, will be quickly amortized by the non-interruption of cultivation!

The additional style of AGRO-SOLENERGY, allows the placement of the Inventer (I), electrical panels or other devices, under the PV panels, in a place that is not affected by rain, hail or other weather phenomena but not by moisture and dust , in a style accessible by technicians, thus preventing their overheating or short circuits and, by extension, the reduction of electricity production.

Finally, it has been observed that the northern end of the PV panels (fig. 3), which is also the highest from the ground, is a place visited by birds, such as crows, which with their rich droppings shade a large surface of the PV panels, resulting in a significant reduction their performance. To prevent this from happening, a 15-20 cm metal grid (Π) will be placed there (fig. 3), with a sharp end, to prevent birds from standing, which wear out and reduce the performance of the panels due to defecation! The cost of this addition is insignificant, but the benefit very important!

Claims (4)

1. Construction of PV support bases characterized by the fact that their height is of the order of 2.0 m on the south side of the PV and with a longitudinal distance between them of the order of 2.5 - 3.5 m - without this being binding - which will allow cultivating the soil using motorized means such as tractors for plowing or other means for harvesting. 2. Construction of support bases, as in claim 1, characterized by the fact that a metal or plastic grid like that placed in the fencing of fields or plots of land will be supported on the southern imaginary wall they form. This will serve to plant, along the bases, climbing plants or flowers such as the vine, beans, asparagus, roses, etc., which will grow with great ease on the mesh without binding soil of the basic crop. 3. Placing PV panels on supports, as in claim 1, so that they are placed under the OL inverter panels, at a point where it is not affected by rain, hail or other weather phenomena but not by moisture and dust, thus preventing their overheating or short circuits and by extension the reduction of electricity production. 4. Placement at the northern end of the PV panels, which is also the highest from the ground, of a metal grid approximately 15-20 cm high, with a sharp end, to prevent birds from standing in the shade and, due to their defecation, wearing down and reducing the efficiency of the panels .
