Karka floating solar power plant; Electricity production on water and testing of evaporation reduction Fayman Tajipour, the manager of the Sataba solar power plant project, in an interview with "Iran": the technical and engineering studies of the Karkah floating solar power plant have been completed and the project has entered the stage of supplying equipment and transferring it to the Karkah dam site. As a pilot project, this program will provide a good opportunity to evaluate the performance of the floating equipment, the amount of electricity production, the behavior of the structure against fluctuations in the water level, the possible effects on the reduction of evaporation and the costs of operation and maintenance in the climatic conditions of the country. Some of the equipment is supplied from abroad and international shipping restrictions can affect the timing. Evaporation reduction is one of the potential benefits of floating solar power plants, and the research of this project is not only focused on electricity generation. One of the advantages of setting up a solar power plant near dams with hydroelectric power plants is the possibility of coordination between two sources of electricity production.
