In the heart of Jeollanam-Do, Republic of Korea, the 24MW DONG YANG ENERGY PV (Photovoltaic) power plant stands as a beacon of sustainable energy generation. This facility, adorned with 180W108,864 and 200W21,792 solar panels, embodies the commitment to harnessing solar power for a cleaner, greener future. Let’s delve into how this initiative aligns with the national renewable energy agenda and contributes to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction.
Empowering Renewable Energy:
DONG YANG ENERGY’s PV power plant plays a pivotal role in Korea’s renewable energy promotion policy. By generating electricity solely from solar energy, it actively diminishes the reliance on fossil fuels, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The 24MW capacity, with an impressive 17.1% efficiency, marks a substantial leap toward sustainable power generation.
Technical Marvels and Emission Reduction:
The power plant boasts a total generating capacity of 24MW, producing approximately 34,510 MWh annually. Over a decade, this translates to an average annual emission reduction of 21,037 tCO2. These numbers underscore the environmental impact and carbon footprint reduction achieved by embracing photovoltaic technology.
Operational Excellence:
DONG YANG ENERGY takes charge of the project’s practical operation and management, ensuring seamless execution. The collaboration with ECOEYE goes beyond borders, as the latter supports the issuance of carbon credits globally, aligning with diverse sustainable projects.
Sustainable Development Goals:
The overarching goals of this project extend beyond mere energy generation. It aspires to:
Environmental:
-
- Replace coal-fired power plants to contribute to national GHG emission reduction.
- Enhance air quality and living conditions through reduced air pollution.
Social and Technological:
-
- Diversify electric generation sources, fostering innovation in power generation technology.
- Collaborate with local governments for the revitalization of the local energy industry.
Economic:
-
- Supply local areas with available electric power, bolstering national energy reserves.
- Create direct and indirect job opportunities through plant construction and operation.
