AgriPV, Floatovoltaics and Integrated PV System Design for Sustainable Industry, Agriculture and Climate Resilience

ODTÜ-GÜNAM offers advanced expertise in the design, simulation, optimization, and validation of innovative photovoltaic systems supporting the Clean Industrial Deal and Green Deal objectives.

Our core competencies include:

• Agrivoltaics (AgriPV): Crop-specific PV system design, PPFD/light distribution analysis, water management integration, and sustainable agricultural productivity optimization

• Floatovoltaics (FPV): Floating PV system pre-design, site-specific energy yield assessment, and water-energy nexus applications

• Integrated PV Solutions: Bifacial PV systems, customized panel configurations, greenhouse-integrated PV, and dual land-use strategies

• Digitalization & Monitoring: IoT/SCADA platforms, sensor integration, predictive monitoring, and data-driven performance assessment

• Simulation & Engineering Tools: PVSyst, Rhino/Ladybug, SketchUp, and advanced techno-economic analysis

• Glare & Environmental Assessment: FAA-compliant glare analysis, environmental impact considerations, and climate adaptation strategies

• Pilot Demonstration & Validation: Experience through Horizon Europe projects including SolarHub, PV4Plants, and applied AgriPV living labs

We are particularly interested in collaboration on:

1. Clean industrial technologies integrating renewable energy

2. Sustainable agriculture-energy-water nexus systems

3. Climate-resilient infrastructure

4. Nature-positive industrial innovation

5. Cross-border pilot demonstrations and EU-funded R&D consortia

METU-GUNAM seeks consortium partnerships for Horizon Europe calls focused on clean energy transition, sustainable industrial transformation, and innovative climate technologies.
