‘China’s first large-scale offshore PV project’ ready for operation

,
The booster station for China’s first large-scale, pile-fixed deep-water offshore PV project has been energized for the first time.

The CGN Yantai Zhaoyuan 400 MW floating solar project, located in Laizhou Bay in northern Zhaoyuan City, spans 6,44 square kilometers and comprises 121 PV sub-arrays.

With an alternating current (AC) side-rated capacity of 400 MW and a direct current (DC) side installation capacity of 539.3274 MW, the project uses Grand Sunergy’s Seapower double-sided, double-glass heterojunction (HJT) solar modules.

According to the company, offshore photovoltaics face unique challenges due to the harsh marine environment, which includes high humidity, salt spray, corrosion, UV radiation, lightning, low temperatures, and biological fouling.
