The PV power plant in the desert has a heating effect on the ambient temperature during the day, but the ambient temperature is not a distinct change at night (Broadbent et al., 2019). The characteristic of heating effect is not only presented daily change.
The sheer size only becomes clear from aerial views revealing millions of blue-black modules blanketing the desert. This massive plant’s 6 million panels alone account for 1% of the globe’s solar photovoltaic capacity.
In brief, there are no obvious effects of the deployment of PV arrays on air temperature at various heights in deserts and lakes. However, the physical properties of deserts and lakes are different, so how does the temperature of the PV panels change. Fig. 4.
"Building a photovoltaic power station in the desert is not easy, and requirement for solar equipment is higher due to the windy and sandy environment in the desert," Miao Ruijun, deputy head of Mengxi New Energy Dalad Photovoltaic Power Station in SPIC Nei Mongol Energy Co, told the Global Times at the site on Saturday.
Therefore, the deployment of PV arrays has no impact on the ambient air temperature all year in deserts and lakes according to the observational data. This result is in contract with the Li et al. study that the local temperature will increase in the Sahara Desert by a climate model, but the impact in other deserts is small (Li et al., 2018).
In 2018, MUS had the largest area of PV power stations (30.80 km 2, 30.0%), followed by TenD (29.50 km 2, 28.8%), UBD (11.33 km 2, 11.0%) and HobD (8.14 km 2, 8.0%). Compared with other deserts, these four deserts are located in the central part of north China, and the surrounding areas have a higher level of economic development.
