Azerbaijan's First Smart Scavenging Project For Photovoltaic Power Plants Was Connected To The Grid!

On the western shore of the Caspian Sea, rocks in the desert depict ancient totems of the sun. Not far away, Azerbaijan's largest solar power plant rises, injecting modern energy into the ancient faith.

Recently, Azerbaijan's first large-scale new energy project - the Gobustan photovoltaic power plant began to be connected to the grid in batches, the President of Azerbaijan Aliyev attended and spoke at the ceremony.

The power plant project is located about 60 kilometers southwest of Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, and covers an area of 5.5 square kilometers, about the size of 770 standard soccer fields. After being connected to the grid, the project will generate 500 million kWh of electricity per year, which can be used by 110,000 families and reduce carbon emissions by 200,000 tons per year.

Due to its location in the desert and frequent sand attacks, the power station is equipped with intelligent PV cleaning robots in order to improve power generation efficiency and extend the service life of PV modules. 600 sets of robots were delivered within 10 months, and they operate daily to ensure that PV modules are not covered by sand and dust and to reduce ash loss. In addition, relying on the intelligent cloud platform, the robot dynamically cooperates with the 1P tracking bracket of the power station, with the longest running mileage of a single unit reaching 2,000 meters, which helps the power station to realize the double gain of "tracking+intelligent cleaning".
