The innovative and mobile solar container contains 200 photovoltaic modules with a maximum nominal output of 134 kWp and, thanks to the lightweight
UltraTech's integrated manufacturing unit, Awarpur Cement Works, has installed Floating Solar Photovoltaic panels (FSPVs) in two water reservoirs of 3600 square meter area, located in the mines area within the unit premises. With a DC capacity of 4.096 MWp (3.30 MW AC), the solar project consists of around 7600 solar panels.
Location and DNI availability of the investigated plant A conventional cement plant (Kotputli Cement Works (KCW), an UltraTech Cement Limited manufacturing unit) at Kotputli, Jaipur, Rajasthan, was investigated for solar thermal application.
Concentrated solar power system is designed for cement industry. Substitution of required thermal energy ranging from 100% to 50% is studied. 7600 heliostats with 570 ha land required for 50% conventional energy replacement with solar energy. Selected conventional cement plant could save 419 thousand tons of CO 2 annually.
There is no way that a solar cement plant can run continuously throughout the whole solar day. Therefore, several assumptions/constraints and modifications are considered and included in this model. The model is considered a solar calciner, constructed and tested at the German Aerospace Centre (DLR).
