Solar-powered grow rooms are not a new concept. Historically, the main challenge has been cost efficiency. However, as solar panels become cheaper and more energy-efficient, this issue is diminishing. Another barrier to the adoption of solar-powered grow rooms is growers’ unfamiliarity with such setups. Many growers prefer tried-and-true methods over experimenting with less-documented systems. The average grower has little room for experimentation, as failure could lead to crop and financial losses.
