Effects of large-scale photovoltaic power stations on near-surface microclimate in Mu Us sandy land —A case study of Yidangwan photovoltaic power station at Jingbian County, Shaanxi Province
[Objective] The differences in near-surface micrometeorological characteristics inside and outside photovoltaic (PV) power plants were revealed
and the impact of large-scale PV power plant deployment on near-surface microclimate in Mu Us sandy land was evaluated
in order to provide a scientific basis for wind-sand control and ecological restoration in PV power plants. [Methods] Observational data were gathered from automatic weather stations to assess how the layout of photovoltaic power stations in the Mu Us sand land affects the near-surface microclimate. Microclimate elements (wind speed
wind direction
air temperature
relative humidity
and radiation) were compared between control points and various observation points within the station. [Results] ① Compared to the control area
both types of photovoltaic arrays exhibited significant changes in wind direction at a height of 2 m
presenting a more monotonous pattern. ② The temperature within the photovoltaic array areas was reduced. The maximum temperature decreases recorded between and beneath the fixed adjustable photovoltaic panels were 0.92 ℃ and 0.97 ℃
respectively. In comparison
the horizontal
single-axis photovoltaic panels showed maximum temperature reductions of 2.24 ℃ and 2.46 ℃ between and beneath the panels
respectively. ③ The relative humidity of the air in the photovoltaic array area increased
with the greatest increments occurring in the fixed adjustable photovoltaic area in December
where the inter-panel and under-panel areas increased by 3.77% and 2.31%
respectively. The horizontal
single-axis photovoltaic area experienced the largest increase in March
with inter- and under-panel areas rising by 15.86% and 15.44%
respectively. ④ The impact of the photovoltaic arrays on radiation was predominantly observed beneath the panels
with maximum reductions in solar radiation beneath the fixed adjustable and horizontal
single-axis photovoltaic panels of 91.30% and 88.27%
respectively
and maximum reductions in photosynthetically active radiation of 91.06% and 82.29%
respectively. [Conclusion] The deployment of large-scale photovoltaic power stations can alter wind direction
reduce air temperature
increase relative humidity
and decrease surface solar radiation and photosynthetically active radiation. Notably
the horizontal
single-axis photovoltaic array outperformed the fixed adjustable photovoltaic array in terms of its capacity to lower temperature and increase humidity.
