Utility-Scale Solar Farms and Agricultural Land Values
研究了大型地面太阳能农场对周边农业土地价值的影响，发现没有直接正负溢出效应，但可能通过信号土地适合未来太阳能开发而间接影响价值。
Property value models are used to examine how utility-scale, ground-mount solar farms affect nearby agricultural land values. Results indicate that solar farms do not have direct positive or negative spillover effects on nearby agricultural land values. However, results also suggest that solar farm construction may indirectly affect agricultural land values by signaling the land’s suitability for future solar development. Specifically, results indicate that proximity of agricultural land to electric transmission lines may be positively valued after a solar farm is constructed nearby.
