Agrivoltaics – Harmony Between Renewable Energy and Farming
A common concern raised when discussing new solar farms, is the loss of agricultural land where the farm will be located. But what if we could have our cake and eat it too? Enter “agrivoltaics” which aims to blend solar energy generation while maintaining agricultural production. Agrivoltaics, or agrivoltaic farming,…

What Are Right of Light Assessments?
When considering a new building development in an urban area, concerns are often raised regarding the effects of overshadowing on surrounding buildings. There are two primary considerations: the planning process and the legal liabilities. The planning process is typically navigated by undertaking a Daylight and Sunlight Assessment, considering guidance prepared…
Precision Approach Radar: The Little-Known Radar That Can Cause Big Problems
With the positivity surrounding the UK onshore wind sector, it is a good time to refresh the memory of the safeguarding constraints that exist around aviation and wind development. One of the most significant constraints surrounding wind and military aviation is the safeguarding of the Precision Approach Radar or ‘PAR’.…
Two Layers Are Better Than One: Perovskite-On-Silicon Solar Panels
Scientists at the solar research and development centre, Oxford PV, are entering a new era of solar innovation, researching the potential of perovskite to increase the efficiency of solar panels when combined with traditional silicon cells. What is Perovskite-on-Silicon? Perovskite is…
Understanding the Impact of Shadowing Solar Panels
If a shadow was cast over half of a solar panel, then only half the amount of sunlight will be reaching the panel, and therefore the energy output of the solar panel will be halved, right? Unfortunately, the physics is not so straightforward, and shadowing just a single cell in…
