Agro Fossil Free - Studio sulle prestazioni e l'efficienza economica dell'energia solare sui terreni agricoli: un caso di studio nella regione centrale, in Vietnam

Descrizione generale

Vietnam is an agricultural country with about 35% of the land devoted to agricultural production and has a solar energy source with average radiation of about 4–5 kWh/m2/day. A combination of agricultural production and solar power can ensure support for rural economic development. However, these projects have not been evaluated in detail by Vietnamese investors. In the paper, the economic efficiency of a typical solar power project on agricultural land in Gia Lai province, Central Region, Vietnam is analyzed by using RETScreen financial-economic efficiency analysis software. This study shows that the payback time of a typical solar power system on agricultural land in Gia Lai province is about 8 years. Moreover, the results also help investors understand more the benefits to encourage investment and develop the combination of agriculture and solar energy in Vietnam.
