Introduction. In recent years, the energy demand of civil building environmental control has been greatly reduced (Kelly et al., 2020), and substantial energy-saving potential still exists in other sectors, such as agricultural production buildings, because crop production directly accounts for approximately 10–12% of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions (Wu et al., 2020).
Since solar energy is available everywhere, agricultural greenhouses, which are often built-in remote and rural areas where no electric energy is available, can greatly profit from solar-to
