Lovely and thanks! Any information on how they managed the programming or which sun orientation were the strips made at?
I’m personally more of a fan of bifacial solar panels for agri PV: https://www.energie-klimaschutz.de/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/agriphotovoltaik-solarenergie-landwirtschaft.jpg
You don’t need any expensive trackers and moveable parts which will require maintenance and they produce electricity mostly in the morning and afternoon, instead of contributing to the solar peak at noon, so you will get better prices for the electricity you produce and help the grid.
My local airport has a giant solar field next to it. And a parking problem. I still can’t understand why they didn’t just put the solar on slightly higher supports and have parking underneath.
