Hey, thanks for the AMA.

What is your opinion on solar pollinator habitats?

I’ve read that they could improve crop yield and quality in surrounding farmlands. Are they a viable project or their impact are not significant enough to pursue them?

Hey there, thank you for the question! I'm not super familiar with agrivoltaics from my own reporting, unfortunately (at least not yet), but have read a lot about them. Would point you to this great Associated Press piece: https://apnews.com/article/climate-science-business-lifestyle-environment-and-nature-8f388056808946fbc1aa9a4d6bbc812e.

Hope that's helpful!
