The first floating solar cell power plant on the surface of the water

Floating Solar Cell

The whole world is turning to the production of electricity from new and renewable energy sources such as solar energy and wind energy, as they have many advantages.

However, one of the disadvantages of a solar power plant is that it requires large areas, and in some countries these areas are not available for many reasons, which is why they resort to solar power plants installed on the surface of lakes.

Floating solar panels are solar panels installed on a structure that floats on the surface of the water and are attached to a rubber structure, which is anchored to the bottom of the lake or sea, and they have many advantages.

The water surfaces containing the solar panels work to cool the solar panels, and we know that the rise in temperature affects the efficiency of the solar panel.

Also, the presence of solar panels on water surfaces works to shade the water and prevent it from exposure to sunlight, thus reducing evaporation, which is very useful in areas prone to drought.

The shade provided by the solar panels helps reduce the presence of algae, and also provides an area of land that can be used for agriculture or building a residential city... etc.

The solar power plant is easy to disassemble and assemble, and the power plant with all its components, from transformers and inverters, can be easily moved to any other water surface.

Floating solar power plants exist in Southeast Asian countries, especially in China and Singapore.
