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.
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.
These special types of land, often with harsh natural environment, low land utilization rate and abundant solar radiation, are more suitable for large area installation of PV facilities, with green energy to drive innovative applications and land transformation, to achieve simultaneous development of economic and ecological benefits.
Accordingly, this study conducts a quantitative analysis of the land use benefits of PV power stations at the provincial spatial scale in China, aiming to bridge research gap and explore the harmonization and improvement of renewable energy production while realizing land resource value.
First, PV will gradually withdraw on agricultural land. In the face of the strictest arable land protection system, PV project development should avoid competing with food and other crops for light sources, and comply with the national guarantee of arable land retention and permanent basic farmland requirements.
Specifically, the power generation value of PV land in China ranges from 1.90×10 5 to 5.09×10 5 CNY/hm 2; the production value brought by agricultural development ranges from 6.28×10 4 to 1.53×10 5 CNY/hm 2, and the value of ecosystem services provided by the land ranges from 2.43×10 4 to 8.95×10 4 CNY/hm 2.
