Design of a 100 MW solar power plant on wetland in Bangladesh

摘要: World-wide a small-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) system is increasingly becoming a popular power source for domestic application. In contrast, large-scale solar power plants are of growing interest for commercial, industrial and community users as an alternative to fossil fuel-driven power plants. Despite the growing interest, scant information on large-scale solar power generation especially in rural and inaccessible locations is available in the public domain. Hence, the primary objective of this study is to design a large-scale (100 MW) solar power plant for wetland areas in Bangladesh. For the 100 MW power plant, a total of 166,670 solar modules (each of which is 2,070 mm long, 1,390 mm wide and 45mm thick with 600 W power capacity) have been used. To generate 100 MW electricity (power), around 303 acres (approximately 123 hectares) of the wetland is required keeping the distance of 2.35 m between …
