RNE looks at some multiple land use in China for a solar power plant - China completes 200 MW solar facility on top of fish farm.
In an online statement, the Cixi municipal authorities hailed the project as a “new model” for solar-aquaculture projects, as the PV modules were deliberately spaced far apart to allow enough sunlight to penetrate the water, which is critical for the growth of the fish beneath the surface. Construction started in late June and wrapped up in December. The project is expected to annually generate about 220 GWh of electricity, or enough to cater to the needs of roughly 100,000 homes.
