If no, here is a brief description of the concept of Viti-PV:

Viti-PV stands for the combination of viticulture and photovoltaics (PV). This innovative technology allows solar panels to be installed within vineyards, enabling simultaneous grape cultivation and solar energy generation. The solar panels are strategically placed between or above the vines to maximize land use and positively influence the microclimate. The goal of Viti-PV is to combine sustainable energy production with traditional viticulture without compromising wine production.

There are already several research and pilot projects focusing on Viti-PV. Significant research is being conducted by institutions such as Fraunhofer ISE and Geisenheim University. These projects examine the technical, economic, and agronomic aspects of Viti-PV and test various configurations and technologies in pilot installations to determine best practices for implementation.

The topic is gaining increasing relevance. Recently, the German Minister of Food and Agriculture, Cem Özdemir, visited a Viti-PV installation to learn about the benefits and possibilities of this technology. Below is the online article from SWR:
