Productive Use Report – Evaluation of solar-powered agricultural technologies for productive-use applications: A modelling approach

This report uses economic modelling to investigate the viability of ten different productive use applications of solar power in agriculture (oil extraction, maize shelling, rice hulling, fruit juice making, sugar cane juicing, fruit drying, flour milling, peanut shelling and coffee pulping). It investigates each technology in detail and then calculates the profits and other benefits it could generate for operators and farmers.
