Since it's 24" wide, you might be able to use a whack of 24" T5 HOs lined up along the width vice the length as is done traditionally. This could even open up opportunities for progressive on/off scheduling to simulate dawn/midday/dusk. You'd need a number of ballasts on timers though, but doable I'd say, using retro fit parts & individual reflectors.
