Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Solar Energy and the Agricultural Industry: Discussion

Dr. John Upton:

It is potentially an area of future research. The country is still in the early stages of implementing these solar farms but I am aware of some research projects being carried out between the Netherlands and the United States, working on a blueprint for implementing sheep grazing systems on these facilities. We will certainly be watching those with great interest. There is potential scope to implement a similar type of research here.
