WHAT IS SPP?
What is a Solar Power Plant (SPP)?
They are systems that convert the endless energy from the sun into electrical energy with the installation of
photovoltaic modules and other components. Solar power plants are like systems in calculators, but use large-sized solar cells.
Photovoltaic solar cells convert incoming sunlight into electricity. The electricity produced in solar power plants, which is the cleanest energy generation technology and nature friendly, provides 10 years of state guaranteed income. It is also a profitable energy source in terms of construction - operating costs and efficiency.
The Main Components of Solar Power Plants are as follows;
Photovoltaic (PV) Panel: By combining semiconductor PV cells on the panel, it provides direct current electricity generation from incoming sun rays.
Inverter: It converts the direct current electricity produced by the PV panels into grid electricity.
Panel Carrier System: Consists of PV panel carrier systems and mounting apparatus.
BOS (Balance of System): The part of solar power plants other than Module, Inverter and construction is called BOS (Balance of System). Infrastructure consists of LV - MV Cable, Connector, Parallel Panels, Switchgear Equipment, Low Voltage Panel and switchgear, Transformer Post, Medium / High Voltage Panel and switchgear, Construction Works, Wire Fences, Lighting, Camera Systems.
The working principle of the solar power plant is based on the electron movement, that is, the photovoltaic effect, which takes place in the materials on which light falls. Photovoltaic batteries are devices consisting of semiconductor materials that directly convert the solar energy falling on them into electrical energy.
It is possible to produce electrical energy at the desired power with the electricity generation system connected to the central grid. First of all, the amount of energy to be produced is determined. DC electrical energy is produced by the contact of the sun's rays on the photovoltaic modules. The generated energy is connected to the central grid system by inverters with high conversion power that can be connected to the central grid. Thus, the generated energy is sent directly to the grid system.
Electricity generation with solar power plants; In addition to the advantage of easy installation, it is a form of energy production that offers ease of use with its long-lasting, environmentally friendly and low operating cost advantages.
The energy obtained from the sun is also sustainable energy. Analyzes show that investment in solar energy is more profitable than agriculture. Turkey's favorable climatic conditions and the price advantage of solar power plants compared to other energy investments increase the interest in solar energy investments day by day.
Many materials are used to
establish a solar power plant and
the investment cost of the solar power plant varies according to the material to be used. SPP Installation costs are a subject that differs for each site according to the characteristics of the ground, the variation of factors such as snow and wind amount locally, the variability of the slopes of the land, the equipment used and the design situation.
In addition to financing options for
solar power plant investments, the government also has very serious incentives.
SPP investments receive a special government incentive compared to other renewable energy sources. Investment costs are also reduced in solar power plants, where a state-guaranteed production cost of 133 USD can be obtained for each MWh produced.
WHAT IS SPP SYSTEM?
Solar energy system is one of the most preferred renewable energy sources today, as it is the system with the lowest price / cost. In addition, solar energy systems are unlimited, clean, easy to store. It is possible to see the SPP system from many areas, from traffic lights to factory roofs.
