“…The concept of this system is to store part of the solar energy received by the greenhouse during the day and release it during the night in order to maintain a temperature range around the set temperature of the plant. During the daytime, during the storage phase, the fluid is circulated by means of a delivery pump from the storage tanks, which are placed horizontally according to the recommendations of [ 18 ], to the closed circuit coil. During the restitution phase, the fluid in a static state emits the energy it has stored as sensible heat to the greenhouse atmosphere through the walls of the storage tanks at night.…”

“…However, this system had some technical and economic limitations that need to be considered. Ihoume et al [ 18 ] performed a study on the use of solar energy to heat a greenhouse and improve its microclimate. Through parametric analysis, they optimized the system and found that it led to a 4 °C increase in nighttime temperature and a 14% decrease in relative humidity inside the greenhouse.…”

“…In this context, the behavior of soil temperature at different depths was modeled and the results suggested that the potential of soil could be used to heat or cool agricultural buildings such as greenhouses. The performance of heating a south-facing greenhouse using a solar copper coil heating system was investigated by Ihoume et al [ 32 ]. In this system, water was circulated as a heat transfer medium in a closed loop on the greenhouse roof to store heat during the day and return it to the greenhouse at night.…”

Purposeof Review According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), a large portion of the various activities in the agriculture and food supply chain (AFSC) are extremely dependent on fossil fuels and contribute to 24% of the total global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Recent Findings There are several strategies to reduce GHG emissions and mitigate the associated destructive impacts. Among them, substituting fossil fuels with alternative low-carbon energy sources has received remarkable attention. Summary The core concept of this study is to explore the relationship between food security, sustainable development, and renewable energy. Renewable energy has shown promising potential for integration into a wide range of agricultural activities and offers an alternative sustainable solution to current practices. In modern agriculture, the need for electrification has increased, with electric tractors and agricultural robots accounting for a large share, which represents a great opportunity for the use of renewable technologies in this sector. As new technologies emerge, investors need to familiarize themselves with them. Further technical improvements, cost reductions, and government incentives can facilitate the real-world deployment of sustainable renewable technologies in agriculture and food production.

“…Considering the increasing energy demand and solar energy potential of our country, it is necessary to accelerate efforts in this direction. Final Installation Inspection Energy Services for companies operating in the solar energy sector are inspections to prove that the installation and connections are in compliance with all requirements before commissioning solar energy facilities [7,8]. The major problem with extracting oil from the Macal rocks is that it is not currently profitable if overcome.…”

In the early days, greenhouse energy did not pay much attention to coating inspections and new applications, spending more attention on repair solar energy projects instead. However, these attitudes have recently changed. Energy producers realize that preventing corrosion and deterioration is less expensive than solving the greenhouse problems when they occur. The proposed model also provides coating, paint control, and error analysis services within the scope of solar machinery and equipment-related services while the greenhouse equipment reached a low energy level. The greenhouse monitoring services ensure that a solar plant is economical, reliable, and of high quality, meets legal requirements, conforms to standards published by domestic and foreign organizations, and determines conditions that cause short circuits or power outages. In this context, with the help of cloud computing-based Internet of things (IOT), the industrial power stations, high-voltage substations, low-voltage networks, power stations that comply with legal regulations on safety from electricity, electrical installations for machinery, alarm systems, fire alarm systems, cathodic corrosion protection mechanisms in oil tanks and pipelines, emergency power supply installations, electrical installations in buildings, and gas alarm systems are inspected and documented.
