[Upcoming]The 5th TGIF seminar: Farm-based solar power generation which contributes to local community
We are pleased to announce that TGIF will host 5th workshop on 8 March on the first floor of Mirai Crea, Hiroshima University. Farm-based solar power generation (solar sharing) is a small-scale facility installed in the upper space of farmland, and power is generated while farming continues in the lower space. It is expected to be a new way of expanding the introduction of renewable energy and the increase of farmers’ income. In addition, considering the future shift to electric smart agriculture, the withdrawal of gas stations in mountainous areas, and the frequent natural disasters, local power generation and local…
