South Korea has activated a 47.2-megawatt floating solar power plant installed directly on the surface of a dam reservoir, showcasing how renewable energy systems can work smarter—not just bigger. The floating solar array is strategically paired with the dam’s existing ~50 MW hydroelectric station, creating a hybrid power system that maximizes energy output from the same location. Floating solar offers key advantages over land-based installations. The water surface naturally cools the panels, im

New Zealand has officially launched its first large‑scale solar farm, marking a significant step in the country’s renewable energy development.
