Land use of photovoltaic (PV) facilities has always been a pressing research field, as the transition to renewable energy requires balancing between land productivity and energy generation. A comprehensive assessment of PV land use benefits is crucial for informed deployment decisions.
Although the transition to renewable energies will intensify the global competition for land, the potential impacts driven by solar energy remain unexplored. In this work, the potential solar land requirements and related land use change emissions are computed for the EU, India, Japan and South Korea.
Here, we propose a multidimensional land use analysis framework, focusing on power generation, production, ecology, and their co-benefits, aiming to assess the impact of PV applications on land use and to quantify the ensuing changes in land value. The results show that PV deployment significantly increases land values.
There are significant variations in land use efficiency at the solar farm level in actual conditions. The highest values of actual capacity-based and generation-based LUE are around ten times of the lowest values, respectively.
In the context of large-scale solar power deployment, increasing the actual solar PV generation and reducing the gap to their technical potential will increase the land-use efficiency and take better advantage of limited land resources.
In this work, the potential solar land requirements and related land use change emissions are computed for the EU, India, Japan and South Korea. A novel method is developed within an integrated assessment model which links socioeconomic, energy, land and climate systems.
