A vast array of solar panels floats on the shimmering waters of a reservoir in northeast Thailand, symbolising the kingdom’s drive towards clean energy as it seeks carbon neutrality by 2050. The immense installation, covering 720,000sqm of water surface, is a hybrid system that converts sunlight to electricity by day and generates hydropower at night.
UBON RATCHATHANI, Thailand (AFP): A vast array of solar panels floats on the shimmering waters of a reservoir in northeast Thailand, symbolising the kingdom's drive towards clean energy as it seeks carbon neutrality by 2050.
A vast array of solar panels floats on the shimmering waters of a reservoir in northeast Thailand, symbolizing the kingdom’s drive toward clean energy as it seeks to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
The immense installation, covering 720,000m2 of water surface, is a hybrid system that converts sunlight to electricity by day and generates hydropower by night.
Touted by the authorities as the “world’s largest floating hydro-solar farm,” the project at the Sirindhorn Dam in the northeastern province of Ubon Ratchathani is the first of 15 such farms that Thailand plans to build by 2037.
The kingdom is stepping up efforts to wean
