6 FAQs about [Hybrid solar hydro power plant]

What is China's largest hybrid solar power plant?

China is a global leader in developing renewable energy, and the Kela photovoltaic (PV) power station is adding to the country’s energy mix as the world’s largest hybrid solar-hydropower plant. The Kela station idea was formed by the Design and Research Institute of Power China Chengdu in 2016.

How does a hybrid solar-hydro station work?

The hybrid solar-hydro station dedicates a significant portion of its solar power resources to operate geyser pumps that pump water into an overhead tank, from where it is released into a hydropower plant to generate electricity. The ocean surface is utilized to install a floating solar plant.

Are hydropower and solar power plants the same?

Hydropower and solar power plants were developed separately in the past. Recently, hydro and solar plants have started to merge into photovoltaic-hydropower hybrid plants, where floating solar panels are installed on the water surface of hydropower reservoirs and/or on the dam surface.

Can floating solar power replace hydropower?

“Normally, floating solar power is an add-on to existing hydropower plants but this project will be developed specifically as a greenfield combo plant with overall low LCOE. PV and hydropower are complementary on a seasonal basis and hydropower can convert intermittent PV into higher-value steady power.”

How many GW a year will a solar-hydropower plant produce?

The plant commenced operations on 25 June. The solar-hydropower project has an installed capacity of 1 GW and will have a generation capacity of 2 GWh annually, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by more than 1.6 million tonnes per year. The planned total installed capacity of the hybrid project is expected to be 3 GW.

How many solar panels are needed for a hydro plant?

For 300-W solar panel, number of solar panels required = 23595. As the second PV plant also operates for 5 hr/day, the number of panels required are the same. Power is used to charge the batteries to run the blowers of the hydro plant. PV panels accommodated on MWR assuming a fixed tilt system. Total area of roof available = 16600 m 2.
