| description | India’s contributions to the development of alternative energy sources are substantial. India has almost tripled the capacity of its renewable energy installations over the last five to six years, with coastal wind and solar photovoltaic (PV) installations accounting for the vast bulk of this growth. Since land scarcity is a big challenge nowadays, it is an excellent idea to construct solar plants on rivers, lakes, and dams, which are otherwise idle water bodies. The progressive depletion of fossil resources and the ever-increasing need for electricity both pose serious obstacles to progress. The electricity generated by floating solar photovoltaic systems is significant. India has completed a number of large-scale projects, including the 100MW Ramagundam, Telangana project and the NTPC Simhadri Solar Plant. This investigation highlights the potential benefits and challenges of these plants. Feasibility analysis of 5MW FSPV at Somasila Dam, Andhra Pradesh is also done in this paper. Additional to this, the article gave the economic and technological analysis of floating solar photovoltaics, in addition to discussing several case studies. |
