Abstract
Combination of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems with crops cultivation creates the need for renewable synergy known as Agrivoltaic (AV). The AV system is in line with the Kyoto Protocol which promotes the reduction of carbon emission and usage of fossil-fuel. The integration of these two resources would optimize the yield, improving AV system efficiency and solving the issue of land scarcity. Currently PV landscapes are transformed to a new transdisciplinary design of land used and extended to ecological performances and beneficial impacts to the surroundings. Malaysia has been actively promoting the adaptation of PV technology as an alternative energy mix for the country since 2010. This study provides some insights of techno-economic aspects with respect to the increasing number and size of PV installations. Detail calculation based on Monte Carlo Simulation for growth rate are also discussed. The large scale solar PV farms are a good indicator of inculcating the AV concept for pathway in developing Malaysia green economy.
