The world’s largest floating PV power plant, with the capacity of 40MW is now connected to the grid.
Chinese PV inverter manufacturer Sungrow announced that a 40MW aquaculture project, the world’s largest floating PV power plant, had been grid connected with its SG2500-MV central inverters in the flooded coal-mining region of Huainan, China.
The power plant is located on a lake that formed in this coal-rich area as a result of gradual subsidence and floods caused by heavy rains. Its water depth today ranges from to 4 to 10 meters.
Sungrow’s central inverter SG2500-MV integrates the inverter, transformer and switchgear, as a turnkey station with lower transportation cost due to its 20-foot containerized design.
In addition, the Chinese manufacturer has also supplied its SunBox PVS-8M/16M-W combiner box, customized for floating power plants, that enables their smooth operation in high humidity and salt spray environments.
“Introducing cutting-edge technologies to products is what we are always committed to. We continue to offer better products and solutions to customers all over the world,” said Renxian Cao, president of Sungrow.
