Technical Study of Developing Floating Photovoltaic 145 MWac Power Plant Project In Cirata Reservoir

Abstract

This paper is concerning how the technical study of the 145 MWac Cirata solar Floating construction was built on the cirata dam. The Cirata floating solar power plant development plan starts with the Renewable Energy Mix target set by the Indonesian government as stipulated in the National Electricity General Planning Document 2018-2037 with a target of 23% renewable energy by 2025. Technical aspects of the study are carried out on several aspects such as availability land which will determine the type of PV Land Base or floating. with some technical considerations while eventually floating technology was chosen since has technical and financial advantages for the construction of solar power plants in this location. Subsequently, an evaluation was carried out to determine the potential for irradiation at the specific locationbju. After obtaining irradiation data and meteorological conditions, a projection of energy production in the location is carried out using the performance ratio parameters on several values to obtain the projection of annual energy production. An evaluation of interconnection was also carried out to find out whether the construction of the 145 MWac floating solar was safe against the reliability of the 150 kV and 500 kV systems in the West Java system.
