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.

Well as long as everyone else is doing it, I should too

With language, that's usually something you need to do to communicate.

Sorry, my phone battery is running out. Does anyone have any orange slices?

Agrivoltaics, AKA "shade", but you can't write any articles about shade.

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.
