Diversify energy dam windmill solar panel hydro.

Renewables solar power could replace all us hydro dams using just 13 of the space banks of solar panels would be able to replace every electricity producing dam in the us using just 13 of the space according to a new study. Just like solar panels hydropower producing dams don t pollute the air like power plants that burn fossil fuels. Well i believe in solar energy systems as well as the wind mill energy supply. Floating solar panels at alto rabagão dam the world s first combined hydro and floating photovoltaic project were officially inaugurated on july 6 2017 in montalegre portugal.

Hydropower dams also come with built in roads transmission infrastructure and access to markets. Energias de portugal edp has started a pilot operation with 2 500 square meters of solar floating panels that are able to annually generate more than 300 megawatts per hour. Hydropower has an important role to play as a provider of inexpensive energy complemented by instream hydro and partnering with solar biomass and wind to provide power. Recently hydro and solar plants have started to merge into photovoltaic hydropower hybrid plants where floating solar panels are installed on the water surface of hydropower reservoirs and or on the dam surface.

Existing dams in places like brazil already produce substantial energy for the integrated grid and what is needed is investment in diversification with solar and wind power. Hydropower and solar power plants were developed separately in the past. This reduces the emission of greenhouse gases released to our atmosphere and therefore preserving our planet that is in danger of global warming. Terraform power generates 3 634 megawatts of solar and wind power around the globe with 65 right here in the u s another 26 in europe and the remainder from facilities in canada chile and.

Mostly in africa nigeria there is alot of sun shine bright radiation and there is no electricity in the region the failure of the old kanji dam this is an old system in the scientific knowledge of the world apart from that my nation is naturally endowed. Wind and solar energy doubled its share of the global power mix over the last five years moving the world closer to a path that would limit the worst effects of global warming.
