The results of monitoring studies on the state of solar power plants in the zones of influence of mining and chemical enterprises are presented. The experience of construction and operation of these facilities has shown that, in comparison with other locations, specific “umbrella” effects can be manifested in areas with unstable soils, concentration of heavy rainfall, activation of erosion processes and changes in the engineering and geological conditions of soils at operation of solar power plants built in the zones of influence of mining and chemical enterprises. The described effects may be characteristic, not only for the described territories of disturbed lands, but also for any erosionally unstable landscapes, in which solar panels will act as rainwater concentrators that actively contribute to the development of near-surface linear erosion processes, especially in conditions of unregulated drainage and non-compliance with anti-erosion protection norms.
