Three tier mechanism for implementing floating solar projects and focuses on the physical components that allow the solar panels to float and remain stable on the water.

A three-tier mechanism for implementing floating solar projects
    A three-tier mechanism for implementing floating solar projects involves the following: 

1) Buoyancy and Structure:- 
The floating platform and its anchoring system. 

2) Solar Panel and Electrical Components: -
  The PV panels themselves, inverters, and other electrical equipment. 

3) Power Transmission and Grid Integration: -
      The cables, transformers, and connection to the electricity grid. 
Elaboration:-

1) Buoyancy and Structure:-
    This tier focuses on the physical components that allow the solar panels to float and remain stable on the water. This includes the floating platform (often made of pontoons or similar materials), mooring lines, and anchors.
    The anchoring system is crucial for keeping the structure in place, especially against wind and waves. 

2)  Solar Panel and Electrical Components:-
   This tier encompasses the solar panels themselves, which convert sunlight into electricity, as well as the inverters that convert the direct current (DC) electricity into alternating current (AC) for use. 
   Other components include waterproof junction boxes, marine-grade cables, and mounting hardware designed for the aquatic environment. 

3) Power Transmission and Grid Integration:-
   This tier involves the infrastructure that transmits the electricity from the floating solar array to the grid or to local users. 
    This includes underwater cables, transformers to step up voltage, and connection points to the existing power grid. 
   These three tiers work together to create a functional and efficient floating solar power plant, utilizing water bodies for energy generation.

Here's a more detailed look:

Ramagundam floating Solar plants:-
  • Located in Telangana, it has a capacity of 100 MW, making it the largest in India
  • It is part of India's efforts to achieve 100 GW of installed solar capacity by 2022, according to Testbook.
Omkareshwar Floating Solar Projects:-
  • Located in Madhya Pradesh, it's planned to be a 600 MW project. 
  • It will be one of the largest floating solar power plants in the world.
  • The project is expected to power 550,000 homes and reduce carbon emissions by 1.2 million tons annually. 
  • It will also help conserve water by reducing evaporation, 
Other notable projects:
  • A 92 MW floating solar project at NTPC's Kayamkulam unit in Kerala. 
  • A 10 MW floating solar plant on Igatpuri lake in the Western Ghats by Central Railway. 
  • Located in Telangana, it has a capacity of 100 MW, making it the largest in India
  • It is part of India's efforts to achieve 100 GW of installed solar capacity by 2022, according to Testbook.

Solar Generation in Night hrs

How to get get Solar generations in Night        While standard solar panels cannot generate electricity at night,     New technologies are being developed to address this limitation.      These advancements focus on harnessing the earth's heat or using infrared radiation emitted by the Earth to generate power, potentially creating 24-hour renewable energy sources.  Key Concepts and Technologies :- 1) Anti-Solar Panels (Thermo-radiative Cells):- How they work:-    These panels, also known as thermoradiative cells, work in reverse of traditional solar panels. Instead of absorbing sunlight, they emit infrared radiation into space, which is then converted into electricity.    Nighttime energy:-     They can generate electricity from the difference in temperature between the panel and the surrounding environment, essentially converting the heat escaping into space back into usable power.  Potential:-  ...

Hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power

  Hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power         Statement "1000 pounds" per day of hydrogen at home — It's the end of solar and wind power in the world" is not accurate.     While hydrogen can be produced from renewable energy sources like solar and wind power, it's not a replacement for those sources themselves. Hydrogen production via electrolysis, using renewable electricity, is a promising avenue for decarbonization, but it doesn't negate the need for solar and wind power as direct energy sources.  Cause behind its is as under. Hydrogen as an Energy Carrier:-     Hydrogen is an energy carrier, meaning it stores energy produced elsewhere (like from solar or wind) and can be used to power fuel cells or for other applications.  Electrolysis:-     A key method of producing "green" hydrogen involves using electricity from renewable sources (like solar and wind) to split water into hydrogen and oxygen throu...

Lift off the ground during seismic activity, minimizing damage in Japan

Lift off the ground during seismic activity, minimizing damage in Japan     Japan has developed a technology that allows houses to literally lift off the ground during earthquakes, protecting them from damage.    This is achieved using a system of compressed air and sensors that inflate an airbag under the house, lifting it a few centimeters during tremors. The house then gently settles back down when the shaking stops.      Japan has developed innovative earthquake-resistant technology that allows houses to lift off the ground during seismic activity, minimizing damage. This is achieved through systems like the one developed by Air Danshin, which uses compressed air to lift houses on airbags. When sensors detect tremors, the airbag inflates, raising the house a few centimeters and preventing it from shaking violently with the ground.    More detailed explanation: Airbag Technology:- Air Danshin has pioneered the use of large airbags placed b...
