These are the 11 most beautiful solar farms in the world
The list features solar mountains, floating farms, and a guest appearance from Mickey Mouse.
Despite our best efforts, humans are still far from capturing even a fraction of the sun's true energy potential. In fact, more than 10,000 times the earth’s total use of solar energy is striking the earth at any given moment.
But high-impact solar farms are an excellent way of making use of this power and are responsible for some of clean energy’s most ambitious projects.
Panels spanning millions of acres of natural environments contain architectural and engineering potential that is only in its infancy. Deserts, mountains, and rivers are now resources to achieve this, rather than obstacles.
As a result, the world is now home to some astonishing solar farms that produce billions of tonnes of electricity each year.
Here are some of the most remarkable examples from around the world.

Rural Seville’s Germasolar Thermasolar plant is centred around a tower receiver, where spirals of concentric rings harness pioneering technologies imported from the US. The sheer expanse of this solar farm’s circular layout almost emulates an optical illusion from above.
The European Commission-funded solar farm has the remarkable ability to produce electricity for 15 hours without sunlight and can automatically adjust its capacity for optimum environmental impact.

The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park is the world’s largest single-site solar farm, with a planned production capacity of 5,000MW by the end of the decade.
A hub of innovation, its all-encompassing structure also houses a Research and Development Centre and a 3D-printed lab.
According to estimates, the farm will cut carbon emissions by around 6.5 million tonnes every year.
9. Crescent Dunes ProjectNevada, USA
A huge sum of 1 billion dollars was invested into Crescent Dunes from the likes of Citigroup and the Obama Foundation. It’s striking desert design concept came to fruition as the world’s first concentrated solar plant, storing energy through molten salt.
Sadly, it hasn’t been able to produce energy since 2019 due to a number of technical difficulties that came with its near-incomprehensible size.
Crescent Dunes remains intact and there are hopes that one day the right investment will revive it back to its groundbreaking potential.
