Agricultural greenhouses are key toward a sustainable food supply; however, they have significant energetic needs due to heating and artificial lighting. There is a push from governments, retailers, and consumers to reduce the carbon footprint of greenhouses.

Voltiris introduces a solar panel design to generate electricity from the part of sunlight's spectrum that is unused for crop growth.
