Solar Farms - SPG
What is a Solar Farm?
A solar farm is a large-scale solar power installation that generates electricity by harnessing sunlight through photovoltaic (PV) panels. These farms are designed to supply power to businesses, industries, or government grids, making them a key player in the transition to renewable energy. Unlike residential rooftop systems, solar farms cover vast areas of land and can generate electricity on a much larger scale.
Process of Setting Up a Solar Farm
Land Acquisition
Identifying and securing suitable land with ample sunlight exposure is the first step in developing a solar farm. The land must be free from shading obstacles and have access to necessary infrastructure.
Installation
High-efficiency solar panels, inverters, and other electrical components are installed on-site. This stage also includes constructing mounting structures and optimizing panel angles for maximum sunlight absorption.
Power Generation
Once operational, the solar farm converts sunlight into electricity, which is then transmitted through power lines to the main grid or directly supplied to industries, commercial spaces, or government facilities.
Distribution - PPA
Under a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), the generated solar power is efficiently distributed to consumers through a structured supply system. The electricity produced by the solar farm is transmitted via power lines to industries, commercial establishments, or government entities, ensuring a steady, cost-effective, and renewable energy supply without the need for upfront infrastructure investment.
