largest solar power plant
Within the framework of the shift away from fossil fuel sources, and replacing it with clean energy, within the framework of its sustainable development goals and its climate commitments. It was decided to build the world's largest solar power plant in a manufacturing facility in Thailand, covering an area of 100,000 square metres, the equivalent of more than 18 football fields.
Features of the largest solar power station in the world:
- The world's largest solar power station consists of 40,000 solar cells.
- Total production capacity of 22 megawatts
- Its construction is expected to be completed by January 2025.
- In January 2025 Sumitomo Rubber Industries plant will be able to use 100% renewable energy, Thanks to the huge investments he made in building the largest power station in the world.
- It covers an area of 100,000 square meters, equivalent to more than 18 football fields
Comprised of 40,000 solar panels with a total output of 22 megawatts, the new installation will generate enough solar energy to support the manufacture of a batch of Falken tires destined for Europe, once it is completed in January 2025.
The investment in the installation of new solar panels, along with the gas cogeneration system and biomass electric power system energy initiatives at the Rayong Provincial facility, will eventually enable it to use 100 percent renewable energy.
In addition to adopting solar energy, a new gas cogeneration system, consisting of two 6.6 MW boilers, running on renewable energy sources, will replace energy supplied by local utility companies.
This aims to reduce Scope I and Scope II emissions of CO2 by 50 per cent (compared to 2017 emissions) with the 2030 target now set to be achieved one year ahead of schedule.
