Swedish trial tests magenta agrivoltaic panels on broccoli to balance solar and farming

Researchers at a Swedish university tested magenta-colored solar panels on a broccoli farm to assess agrivoltaics—co-locating solar generation with agriculture. The trial evaluates whether light-filtering panels can maintain crop yields while generating power, addressing land-use competition. Results are preliminary; feasibility and scalability remain uncertain.
