新加坡公用事业单位及海事集团胜科工业(Sembcorp Industries)的子公司胜科漂浮式光伏(Sembcorp Floating Solar Singapore)已开始在新加坡Tengeh水库建设一座60兆瓦的漂浮式太阳能电站。该公司在一份声明中称:“我们在此之前已有积极的试验结果并展开过广泛的环境研究,这些研究表明漂浮式太阳能电池板对水库水质及生物多样性的影响微乎其微。”
根据一份25年的购电协议,这座太阳能电站将为新加坡公共事业局(Pub)水务管理机构的水处理设施提供电力,后者在2月底选择了新加坡胜科(Sembcorp)公司负责该项目。该机构约7%的电力需求将由这座漂浮式光伏电站提供。
该公司表示,这座电站将采用一家不具名供应商提供的双层玻璃电池板,以及经过认证的食品级优质高密度聚乙烯(HDPE)浮筒,这些浮筒的抗紫外线性能可以防止其在强烈的阳光照射下发生降解。但该公司未透露所需硬件的更多技术细节。
胜科补充道:“为了优化运行性能和可靠性,该系统采用了一个数字监控平台,该平台配备安全摄像头、实时视频监控、仪表板和警报,可以帮助追踪风速、太阳辐照和环境温度等环境因素。该系统还可以检测到可能预示潜在过热和火灾危险的异常情况,以便抢先排除故障。”
该项目预计将于2021年完工。自2017年以来,新加坡太阳能研究所(Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore)一直将Tengeh水库用作漂浮式太阳能测验台。 挪威技术咨询公司DNV GL已被任命为该项目的技术顾问。
