The prevailing climate types in these regions range from warm steppe to tropical climate with fluctuating yearly temperatures between 21°C and 28°C and global irradiation values on the horizontal surface around 1.750 kWh/a. Depending on the region, the average annual rainfall may vary between 700mm and 3000mm.

The plants are located in urban areas and have been installed in rows, parallel to the rooftop surface or on canopy structures.
