Completion of the world's largest solar farm: 100 MW of installed capacity

March 27, 2024

Abu Dhabi is one of the world's largest oil producers. If you think that the United Arab Emirates rarely uses solar energy, you are wrong. Now, Abu Dhabi has built the world's largest concentrating solar electric field in the desert, called "Shams 1," with a total area of ​​2.5 square kilometers of reflectors, which is equivalent to 285 football fields. The installed capacity of this solar farm is 100 megawatts, which can meet the electricity demand of thousands of households and reduce 175,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions every year. The Shams 1 project cost $ 600 million and was completed in three years.

This solar electric field uses trough parabolic concentrating technology. There are more than 258,000 reflectors installed on 768 tracking trough parabolic collectors. The total area is 2.5 square kilometers, which is equivalent to 285 football fields.

By focusing the heat from the sunlight on the oil-filled pipes, Shams 1 generates steam, which drives the turbines to generate electricity. In addition, this solar electric field also uses the heater to heat the steam entering the turbine to improve the efficiency of power generation.
