The Indian government aims at building the world’s largest floating photovoltaic (FPV) project in the Khandwa district. On completion of the project by 2022-2023, It would be named the largest FPV project in the world […]
Floating Solar, a Netherland-based Solar PV company, is not the only company who its floating photovoltaic system passed the storm conditions test. Ocean Sea’s 17 kW FPV system, which was the first offshore floating solar […]
In this article, we aim at comparing floating photovoltaic (FPV) with ground-mounted solar photovoltaic. The comparison is based-on parameters such as land-use efficiency (LUE), energy yield, water evaporation, and local utilization of energy for these […]
According to a recent report from the World Bank, the global potential of FPV, even under moderate assumptions, is 400 Gigawatt all over the world. Floating Photovoltaic (FPV) firstly appeared as an option to extend […]
A study commissioned by BayWa r.e. and done by Fraunhofer ISE, shows that Germany holds 56 GW theoretical potential for floating photovoltaic (FPV) power plants on lignite opencast mines. Dr. Andreas Bett, director of Fraunhofer […]
Introduction: Floating photovoltaic is quite a niche market compared to the mainstream or ground-mounted PV module installation. While it is considered as the third wave for expanding the solar energy market. This segment of the […]
More than two-thirds of the earth’s surface is covered with water [1]. The upper and inner surfaces of this massive water are fit for exploiting its untapped potential to meet the increasing energy demand of […]
The floating battery storage system can play a key role in the rapid expansion of offshore renewables including offshore solar and wind. Due to the intermittent nature of these renewable power generations, floating battery storage […]
Norwegian floating PV specialist Ocean Sun and South Korean tech company EN Technologies have closed a deal on the pilot projects of a 2.1 GW floating solar complex. This project is going to be built […]
Fitch Solutions estimated that 10GW of new floating photovoltaic (FPV) capacity will be added by 2025. We have already reported that until the end of August 2020, cumulative FPV capacity reached 2.6 GW. Thus, after […]
