Chinese fish pond hosts 550 MW solar farm

• Constructed by the Chint Group, the project is currently the largest in China incorporating PV power generation as well as fish farming. It lies in Wenzhou, a city with a subtropical maritime monsoon climate in China's Zhejiang province.

Chinese power transmission and circulation tools carrier Chint Group has actually just recently finished a 550 MW solar plant released on a fish pond in Wenzhou, a city with a subtropical maritime monsoon climate in China's Zhejiang province.

According to the project designers, the area is identified by high temperatures and rain in summer and also frequent typhoon, high-salt and high-humidity climatic conditions at the seaside bring several obstacles to the solar plant.

The facility covers an area of approximately 4,933,333.3 square meters on a beach in the Oufei Enclosed Area, South Zhejiang Industrial Cluster. It was developed with around 1.4 million glass-glass monocrystalline solar modules with a power outcome of 450 W each given by Chint's Astronergy system.

The project integrates PV power and fish farming to make better use of the offered space in the sea, according to Chint.

Inverter maker Kstar announced it gave its GSM3125C-MV35 inverter turnkey options for the project.

" The 550MW solar angling plant is the most significant in Asia," a spokesperson from Kstar informed pv magazine. "And it is linked to the network of State Grid Corporation of China.

" The GSM3125C-MV35 inverter option was picked to ensure the plant's lasting functional stability, given the inverter's solid anti-corrosion defense degree and also trustworthy performance," the speaker went on to claim, keeping in mind that the option is geared up with IP54 protection level, C5 anti-corrosion, Anti-PID as well as PID recovery, and also is especially suitable for overseas PV power generation with high temperature, high humidity, as well as high salt haze area. "It also consists of a power storage user interface, which is convenient for prospective future upgrading of the system."
