Abstract

The present invention relates to a solar system ( 1 ) comprising: a solar shade ( 3 ) configured to be arranged in a crop area ( 5 ), said solar shade ( 3 ) comprising at least one solar panel ( 7 ) designed to generate energy, a storage unit ( 9 a, 9 b ) for the energy generated by the solar panel ( 7 ).

Claims (25)

1 . A solar system ( 1 ) comprising:

a solar shade ( 3 ) configured to be arranged in a crop area ( 5 ), said solar shade ( 3 ) comprising at least one solar panel ( 7 ) designed to generate energy,

a storage unit ( 9 a , 9 b ) for the energy generated by the solar panel ( 7 ).

2 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to claim 1 wherein the solar panel ( 7 ) is a hybrid solar panel configured to produce thermal energy and electrical energy and wherein said solar system ( 1 ) also comprises a fluidic circuit ( 11 ) in fluid connection with the hybrid solar panel ( 7 ).

3 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to claim 1 or 2 , further comprising a thermal circuit ( 13 , 25 ) configured to provide thermal regulation to the crop area ( 5 ).

4 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to claim 3 , wherein the thermal circuit ( 13 , 25 ) is a hydraulic thermal circuit ( 13 ) in fluid contact with the fluidic circuit ( 11 ) to allow a passage of a fluid from the fluidic circuit ( 11 ) to the hydraulic thermal circuit ( 13 ).

5 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to claim 4 , wherein the storage unit ( 9 a , 9 b ) is a reservoir ( 9 a ) arranged at the interface between the fluid circuit ( 11 ) and the hydraulic thermal circuit ( 13 ).

6 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to claim 5 , wherein the reservoir ( 9 a ) is an underground tank.

7 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to one of claims 3 to 6 , further comprising a heat exchanger ( 16 ) in the hydraulic thermal circuit ( 13 ) or the fluidic circuit ( 11 ).

8 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to one of claims 3 to 7 , wherein the solar panel ( 7 ) generates electrical energy and wherein the thermal circuit ( 13 , 25 ) is an electrical thermal circuit ( 25 ) configured to provide thermal regulation to the crop area ( 5 ) from the electrical energy stored in the storage unit ( 9 b ).

9 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to the preceding claim wherein the electrical thermal circuit ( 25 ) comprises at least one of the following equipment:

heating resistors ( 23 ) or electric convectors arranged in the crop area ( 5 ),

a regulated air circulation device,

heating elements configured to blow air onto the crops.

10 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to one of the preceding claims , wherein the storage unit ( 9 a , 9 b ) comprises at least one of the following means:

electrochemical storage means such as a battery,

thermochemical storage means,

gas compression means,

thermal storage hubs,

thermomechanical storage means.

11 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to one of the preceding claims , further comprising a device for drying agricultural stocks and wherein said drying device is powered from the electrical energy stored in the storage unit ( 9 a , 9 b ).

12 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to one of the preceding claims , further comprising a charging station ( 21 ) for agricultural equipment ( 27 ) and wherein the charging station ( 21 ) is powered from the electrical energy stored in the storage unit ( 9 b ).

13 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to one of the preceding claims , comprising electrical equipment intended to be arranged in an agricultural building ( 50 ) and wherein said electrical equipment is powered from the electrical energy stored in the storage unit ( 9 b ).

14 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to one of the preceding claims , wherein the solar shade ( 3 ) comprises a mobile element and an electric motor ( 41 , 43 ) configured to move said mobile element and wherein said electric motor ( 41 , 43 ) is powered from the electrical energy stored in the storage unit ( 9 b ).

15 . The solar system ( 1 ) according to the preceding claim , wherein the mobile element makes it possible to modify the orientation of the solar panel as well as a shadow projected from the solar shade ( 3 ) on the crop area ( 5 ).
