Solar Power

 

The FSD and partners are experienced in all aspects of utility scale solar projects worldwide. Below is a brief explanation of solar power.

 

 

A photo-voltaic power station, also known as a solar park, is a large-scale photo-voltaic system designed for the supply of merchant power into the electricity grid. They are differentiated from most building-mounted and other decentralised solar power applications because they supply power at the utility level, rather than to a local user or users. They are sometimes also referred to as solar farms or solar ranches, especially when sited in agricultural areas. The generic expression utility-scale solar is sometimes used to describe this type of project.The power conversion source is via photo-voltaic modules that convert light directly to electricity. This differs from the other large-scale solar generation technology, concentrated solar power.
