April 2009: The Largest Solar Farms of the World!

Solar Farms are large vicinities of components used to produce energy from the sun. These projects do not emit any carbon gases and they don't pollute the environment. That's why they are considered to produce green energy.

Generally, when we speak of a solar farm, we refer to large scale photovoltaic plants. Well, they are huge areas of photovoltaic (PV) panels used to transform solar energy to electricity. In most projects, we use latest technology intelligent systems, to track the sun throughout the day, and harvest the most sunlight possible.

They are built at places known for relentless sunshine during the most days of the year, and they are usually next to towns.

Currently, (2009) the largest one is located in Spain, but it is relatively small if compared with the planning parks. Have a look at the tables below:

Projects like these pioneer in the clean energy production and they seem to be the solution for our planets saviour. Fortunately, governments tend to like alternative energy sources more and more during last years.

The important thing in Europe is that EU has set goals for each member country for the upcoming years. Of course these goals include residential solar energy production as well.

P.S. This page was uploaded in 2009. Have in mind that as time goes by, new projects are being implemented and thus, the data above might change significantly.
