HOPE-A and the Nanotechnology Lab LTFN | COPE-Nano have announced the Agrivoltaics 2025 conference, held in conjunction with the 15th International Conference & Exhibition on Green Flexible Printed Electronics Industry (ICEFPE25). The event will take place from November 17 to 19, 2025, at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Athens, Greece.
Agrivoltaics 2025 aims to bring together researchers, industry leaders, and stakeholders in the fields of agriculture, photovoltaics, architecture, environmental management, and energy policy. The focus will be on discussing the integration of agriculture and solar photovoltaics, particularly through 3rd Generation PV technologies like flexible Semitransparent Organic Photovoltaics (OPVs).
The event will explore a range of topics, including PV and OPV panel technologies for agrivoltaics, the use of OPVs in greenhouses and open cultivation practices, and the economic feasibility, business models, and scenario analysis for agrivoltaics projects. Discussions will cover energy generation and crop production in agricultural practices and the environmental impact of agrivoltaics systems. The role of LED and OLED lighting technologies in enhancing crop quality and yield optimization will be addressed, alongside the scaling of agrivoltaics for new opportunities and challenges. The conference will also highlight artificial intelligence applications for agrivoltaics systems, hybrid renewable energy sources for greenhouses, and strategies for mitigating infection risks via agrivoltaics systems.
Topics will include triple land use and landscape preservation, energy autonomy, and off-grid systems in agriculture and food production. Sustainable solutions for ecosystem services, performance and maintenance optimization across varied climatic regions in Europe, and energy and crop monitoring with microclimate control in hydroponic greenhouses will be examined. Efficient water management and agrivoltaics environmental modeling will be key points of discussion, as well as the societal, environmental, and climate change impact. Policy frameworks and incentives to support agrivoltaic development, economics of agrivoltaics and business models, and exploring the bankability of agrivoltaics projects will be covered, supplemented by case studies and real-world applications. The global agrivoltaic policy landscape will provide a broader context for these discussions.
This multi-event seeks to provide a platform for high-level scientific and technological exchange, as well as networking opportunities.
