These two projects are collaborating to improve energy-efficient design and energy use in greenhouses. The projects have a focus on the use of ‘smart glass’, semi-transparent photovoltaic glass (STPVG) and solar thermal collector technologies (STC). They will deliver a reliable and comprehensive evaluation of and guide to using these innovative technologies.

This project has been funded by Hort Innovation, using the research and development levies listed below and contributions from the Australian Government. Hort Innovation is the grower-owned, not-for-profit research and development corporation for Australian horticulture.
