What is floating photovoltaics?

Floating photovoltaics means floating solar plants on lakes and other bodies of water. The technology enables energy companies to expand solar power without taking up more land. In 2021, the installed capacity worldwide was significantly above two gigawatts and counting, according to the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE).

Are floating solar panels a viable alternative to ground-mounted solar panels?

Floating PV plant technology has enormous potential for generating energy and protecting the climate – potential that has barely been tapped into yet. In contrast to ground-mounted solar panels, PV modules are installed on floating structures and operate on a body of standing water or the sea. Ground-mounted solar farms need plenty of space.

What is floating solar?

Floating solar is qualified as the « 3rd pillar of solar industry », alongside with ground and rooftop PV. Basically, water bodies are covered with PV modules thanks to a floating structure. Floating solar is the smart combination of floats and solar panels, the whole system being anchored at the bottom, to the banks or both.
