What is a Floating Solar Power plant ? What is the Significance of Floating Solar Projects?

Solar energy is a great alternative to depleting fossil fuels. Cheap, clean, and sustainable; reasons aren’t enough of why Solar Industry Company India is thriving for the past few years. Though solar energy is the best solution to meet energy requirements, the Operation and Maintenance of Solar power plants are challenging. Moreover, setting up a solar plant demands a lot of open space. In view of this, a floating solar power plant is a great alternative. Let us look at a floating solar power plant's characteristics and advantages over a conventional solar power plant. 



What is a Floating Solar Power plant?

As the name suggests, a floating solar power plant is an emerging form of a photovoltaic system that floats on water bodies like dams, lakes, canals, etc. These solar plants are fixed on buoyant structures that keep them afloat to receive sufficient sunlight throughout the year. Underwater cables are used to transfer the electric currents to the power plants. According to the experts from Solar Industry Company India, a floating solar power plant consists of the following units:

●       A floating system

●       A mooring system

●       A PV system

●       Underwater cable

Significance of floating Solar PV Energy Solution

●       Floating solar PV energy solutions generate more electricity than conventional rooftop ones.

●       As the system is placed on a water body, it eliminates all land acquisition challenges

●       The floating energy solution reduces the amount of water loss due to evaporation. Besides, the water used to clean the power plant gets drained into the water body, thereby reducing water wastage.

●       Lesser dust and a reduction in operating temperature of the solar modules enhance the power plant efficiency to a great extent

●       Floating solar PV energy solutions improve water quality by restricting algae growth

●       As they are ‘fixed’ on water bodies, they are fast to deploy and easy to manage

●       They are technically and economically feasible options for scaling up solar generation capacity

What are the different types of PV connection solutions?

Solar PV Energy Solution Owing to the numerous benefits of Solar PV Energy Solutions , the demand for solar cells is on the high end. The solar system comprises semiconductors that convert sunlight into electricity. This way of producing electricity is not only cheap but also environment friendly. Depending upon the functional and operational specifications, PV connection solutions can be broadly categorized into three categories. Grid Connected or Utility-Interactive Systems The foremost advantage of grid-connected Solar PV Energy Solutions is that it is much more economical when compared to other types of PV solar systems. Though this system does not offer any outage protection, it’s design flexibility makes it a popular choice among households. This system can be further divided into grid systems with batteries and without batteries. A grid-connected system without battery Here the solar PV system is integrated with the grid, a conventional electricity infrastructure. The PV system...
