4 FAQs about Environmental assessment requirements for photovoltaic energy storage stations

What are the requirements for large PV power plants?

Large PV power plants (i.e., greater than 20 MW at the utility interconnection) that provide power into the bulk power system must comply with standards related to reliability and adequacy promulgated by authorities such as NERC and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).

What should NREL consider when testing energy storage systems?

Photo by Owen Roberts, NREL Considerations for energy storage system testing include the following. If cost-justified by a large purchase, consider qualification testing of battery systems. Include test conditions in specifications for battery O&M diagnostics and testing.

Where should a large-scale PV deployment be implemented?

Priority should be given to the large-scale PV deployments in areas with abundant solar energy resources, low land costs and convenient grid access.

How do we assess the mitigation potential of PV projects?

In the assessment of mitigation potential, relevant data are derived from collected feasibility study reports, environmental impact assessment reports and environmental completion reports of PV projects in 30 provinces (except Tibet, Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan), which provide detailed economic and technical parameters.
