  2. 2. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.

    Keywords : Floating PV; HOMER Pro; tropical; mediterranean;

    Abstract : To secure the growing energy demand due to the rise in population and technological advancements, countries worldwide are looking for alternatives or complementary generation sources to support the existing grid infrastructure and power generating system. The increase in global temperature and climate change forces each country to switch to clean energy production. READ MORE

  5. 5. Techno-economic evaluation of a floating PV system for a wastewater treatment facility

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Bruno Paixão Martins; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : An increasing capacity of floating photovoltaic technology (FPV) has been deployed in the past five years, showing an alternative to countries with small surface areas to take advantage of man-made water bodies to install solar power. Furthermore, regions where land area is primarily geared towards other uses such as agriculture or are located in large urban centers are also a target for these installations, as land costs tend to be a relevant share of the investment on a solar energy project.
