Defining a Solar Power Plant A solar power plant is a facility that converts sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) panels or concentrated solar power (CSP) systems. PV panels directly convert sunlight into electricity using semiconducting materials.
Solar photovoltaic (PV), which converts sunlight into electricity, is an important source of renewable energy in the 21st century. PV plant installations have increased rapidly, with around 1 terawatt (TW) of generating capacity installed as of 2022.
All decisions regarding the engineering of a large solar PV power system must be carefully considered so that initial decisions made with cost savings in mind do not result in more maintenance costs and decreased performance later in the system’s lifespan.
