Weed control is one of serious problems about maintenance of generating efficiency and facilities at photovoltaic systems. There are various methods, such as concrete pavement, gravel pavement, weed control materials, mowing and herbicide application. Greening has been expected not only weed control but also decreasing of surrounding temperature and improving of regional landscape. In order to suggest the relation between high-temperature control and amount of power generation based on seasonal changes, and photovoltaic silicon solar panels were examined. Based on the measured results, these were clarified; High-temperature control be expected all year long except winter term. High-temperature control wasn't affect by some turf management, such as winter over seeding (WOS) and spring transition. High-temperature control was the most effective in summer term. There remained the landscape effect of turf greening and the relative analysis of life cycle cost of turf greening and electric energy.
