Agrivoltaics using large solar panels to produce cells and provide beneficial shade for grass and crops
agrivoltaic 🌞🌱
Features ✨
Now you can ask Robin to build large solar panels that generate more cells than craftable solar panels, promote grass growth, and protect soil from drying out after watering.
Building Specifications 🏗️
- **Floor area**: 3x1 grid, but the grids on both sides of the center grid are passable but not farmable
- **Placement Requirements**: The 5x4 area above the base (the "shaded" area covered by the panels) must be accessible to prevent overlap with other buildings
Unlock conditions 🔓
It can be unlocked after learning the original solar panel production recipe.
Construction Cost 💰
- 100,000 gold
- 40 refined quartz
- 20 iron ingots
- 20 gold ingots
Robin will be finished building the next day
Battery Production 🔋
- **Summer**: Produce 1 battery per sunny day
- **Spring and Autumn**: 1 battery produced every two sunny days
- **WINTER**: Produce 1 battery every three sunny days
Grass grows 🌿
- **Shaded Areas**: Higher chance of new grass growing and existing grass spreading
- **Special Effect**: New grass is more likely to be blue grass
Moisture retention 💧
Watered soil in **shade areas** will remain moist until the start of next season

Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)
- Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
- Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
- Launch the game through SMAPI (run StardewModdingAPI.exe or set it as the launch option). The console before the title screen lists each mod's load result.
Cheat-style tools may not need SMAPI — unzip and run them as the readme describes. Back up your save before editing it; SMAPI lists failed mods in its console.
