HARARE : China Energy Engineering Corp. has proposed the construction of a 1,000 megawatt floating solar plant on Zimbabwe's Kariba dam at a cost of nearly $1 billion, documents showed on Monday.
Floating solar power stations are becoming an increasingly attractive option as developers seek to avoid using up large spaces and competing land-use interests. "The work scope of the project includes the design, procurement, construction and commissioning of a 1000MW AC floating solar farm and 330kV/33kV booster station," the document says. It would also include a transmission line from the booster station to a sub-station in Kariba.
