Monitoring of agrivoltaic crop performance in newly deployed systems
Balancing photovoltaic (PV) or hydrogen (H2) output with crop yields in an agrivoltaic (AV) production system is done on several levels. Starting during the design phase, an estimation of the crop’s response to dynamic shading is made based on various boundary conditions. By adjusting construction type, exposure, solar panel density and transparency degree, a first assessment of the crop yield and corresponding system efficiency is made.

Club GREY HORSE – Providing multiple ecosystems services by forest renters
This case study is drafting new legislation that allows renting forestland for multiple purposes in order to increase economic efficiency and maintain a balance between all ecosystem services. This Russian case works on regulation mechanisms so that people renting forestland can use it for multiple purposes, and to include ecosystem services in the Forest Code.
Spiritual forests and forest kindergartens
This factsheet explores how managing forests to be used as spiritual forests and forest kindergartens could benefit both the forest and the forest owner. The core impact of the case study is to raise awareness of the importance of cultural ecosystem services and to motivate forest actors to manage forests appropriately.
