Abstract
Aqua-PV systems combine aquaculture with solar panels to produce both food and clean energy. This innovative concept involves the cultivation of aquatic organisms beneath solar panels, optimizing the utilization of water bodies. The integration of solar panels provides shade, reducing water evaporation and algal growth, thereby improving water quality for aquaculture. These systems offer benefits like water conservation, improved water quality for fish, and potential for ecosystem restoration. Challenges include reduced light penetration for plankton and biofouling on panels and equipment. While aqua-PV holds significant promise, challenges such as the initial investment, technological advancements, and environmental impacts require careful consideration. Further research is needed to optimize light and develop anti-fouling methods. Through careful planning, research, and development, Aqua-PV has the potential to revolutionize the way we utilize water bodies, contributing to a more sustainable and resilient future. By harnessing the power of the sun and the productivity of aquatic ecosystems, this integrated approach offers a compelling solution to global challenges.
