Conditions of solar PV site selection

Conditions of solar PV site selection

 

 

From a few years ago, in compliance with government's renewable energy policies, the interest in solar PV business has increased. The proportion of a coal power generation and a nuclear power plant is decreasing and the clean and safe future energy are accelerating. In this era, especially a solar technology is developing very fast and an economic efficiency is getting better. Let's check up on the conditions of site selection for this PV business.

 

To install a solar power plant, we need to have a three-phase electric pole or a pole with a transformer next to the solar site. The reason for this is that without the three-phase electric pole or the transformer, the cost will be more expensive to draw electricity after the construction.

 

It is important to choose a right land and terrain for the solar PV business.

 

It is recommended that the land is oriented toward a full south direction. If there is a land in a full south direction, it can produce the most electricity through solar light. It is advisable to select a rice paddy or a field with an inclination angle of 20 degrees or less and a gentle slope angle. It is good to have a place without shade resulting from high mountains or trees around the land. Solar power plants produce electricity by the sun light, so the efficiency of the module is reduced by the shade.

 

It is important to secure access roads for the solar power plant construction. It is good to check whether the road is next to the site. If there is not any road to the side of site, it may be difficult to bring in the material when we proceed with the construction work. If we do not have any road, you may not be able to obtain a development permit or have to set up.

 

 

 

When a solar power plant is operating, there should be no pollutants which can cause problems from pollution, air pollution, etc. If there is a contaminant, the module or structure can be contaminated when the solar power plant is installed. So it is recommended that the surrounding environment is also taken into consideration. If you are planning a solar power project, proceed with a thorough preliminary review with experts. It is recommended that you start by carefully checking site visits as well as permits and development permits by local government.
