DESIGN, SIMULATION, AND INTEGRATION OF 5MWp FLOATING SOLAR PV WITH 760MW KAINJI HYDROELECTRIC POWER PLANT

This research work assists in analysing accurate data and modelling a suitable model for integrating floating solar PV with hydropower plants. As a result, greenhouse gas emissions are reduced, and the best or most effective/proper system configuration is achieved. It can also benefit stakeholders and investors in implementing a hybrid system design and development.
According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), the critical differences between ground-mounted photovoltaic solar plants and floating photovoltaic solar plants
