Abstract: The article provides an economic assessment of the possibility of using solar collectors to generate electricity in areas unfavorable for agricultural production in the Arctic territories, its use in vertical farms for growing ash. It was concluded that the use of vertical farms and solar collectors is economically consistent. Sharing them can improve overall project efficiency. If we take into account the economic effect of the production of greenery on vertical farms together with the effect of using solar collectors to generate electricity, the payback period will be from 1.1 (small business) to 1.6 years (population).
