As seen within this study, the available light in the area between the panels decreased as the height of the PV panels increased. However, this impact diminishes as the distance between panels increases.
Nevertheless, what will the climate and soil be under PV panels are rarely mentioned. Based on one-year observations, a typical Gobi solar park in northwest China was characterized by lower R n and wind speed under PV panels, along with higher rear side air temperatures, as a result of the installation of PV panels.
This overall pattern was generally similar across the three PV panel heights. Of the designated areas within the AVS, the solar radiation intensity was the lowest at the top of the southern and northern areas, directly below the PV panel, with an increase in light intensity towards ground level.
Armstrong et al. (2016) demonstrated that vegetation under PV panels was dominated by grasses and that the total aboveground biomass between PV panels and control areas was four times higher than that under PV panels.
