Abstract

Photovoltaic (PV) generation has emerged as an alternative for reducing environmental impacts. Recently, floating photovoltaic (FPV) configurations have gained popularity, utilizing the water surface of reservoirs as installation sites. Recognizing its potential, this paper proposes a methodology to harness the idle capacity of substation facilities in hydroelectric power plants (HPP) for sizing FPV plants, aiming for the maximal utilization of the substation's capacity and promoting complementarity with HPP generation. The study introduces a sizing proposal for FPV based on complementarity with the worst day of HPP generation within a defined period, aiming to utilize 100% of the substation's capacity. As a case study, the FPV potential is identified as 59.81 GWp for Belo Monte and 55.35 GWp for Itaipu. This approach seeks to enhance the overall efficiency and sustainability of power generation systems by integrating FPV with existing hydroelectric infrastructure.

利用水电站闲置容量确定浮动光伏发电站规模的方法学

光伏（PV）发电已成为减少环境影响的一种替代方法。最近，利用水库水面作为安装地点的浮动光伏（FPV）配置越来越受欢迎。认识到其潜力，本文提出了一种利用水力发电厂（HPP）变电站设施闲置容量来确定 FPV 电站规模的方法，旨在最大限度地利用变电站容量，促进与水力发电厂发电的互补性。本研究介绍了 FPV 的选型建议，该建议基于在规定时间内与水力发电厂最差发电日的互补性，旨在利用变电站 100%的容量。作为案例研究，贝洛蒙特和伊泰普的 FPV 潜力分别为 59.81 GWp 和 55.35 GWp。这种方法旨在通过将 FPV 与现有水电基础设施相结合，提高发电系统的整体效率和可持续性。
