Heard positive numbers from a farmer connected to EV research as well. He provided the "Agri-"part of the experiment😊 No numbers from any paper yet, though.

Calling it “agrivoltaics” but it’s really agriculture using photovoltaics is misleading. It stands to reason that “agrivoltaic” should refer to the generation of electricity using agriculture, like growing a branch of a lemon tree while using the lemons to generate voltage

You may not like the term, but it’s what everybody else is using.
