The world's largest solar power plant with a capacity of 2 GW was launched in the United Arab Emirates in Abu Dhabi.
SPP consists of 4 million double-sided solar panels, reports TaiyangNews.
It is noted that this power plant increased the solar capacity in Abu Dhabi to 3.2 GW. It will be able to provide green energy to about 200,000 families, as well as reduce annual carbon emissions by 2.4 million tons.
"We expect to develop an additional 1GW of new solar projects in Abu Dhabi every year for the next 10 years as part of our strategic plan to rapidly accelerate the decarbonisation of energy production," said Emirates Water and Electricity Company CEO Othman Al – Ali.
