Norwegian floating solar technology provider Ocean Sun partnered with Chinese solar manufacturer GCL-SI in June to build the floating solar system in the 1,170-hectare Magat reservoir, found 220 miles north of capital Manila on the […]
Vietnam has smashed past steady Australia in terms of solar PV capacity installations after a huge number of projects were connected to the Southeast Asian country’s national grid ahead of the 30 June deadline to […]
Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) says it is thinking about developing floating renewable energy plants in the Persian Gulf. On June 9 it launched a search for consultants who can advise it on the […]
The advantage of floating solar parks is that scarce land does not have to be used to generate sustainable energy. At first, mainly sand extraction ponds, dredging depots, reservoirs, and basins of water companies are […]
Brazil is the second-largest producer of hydroelectric power in the world, after only China, and hydropower accounted for more than 70% of the country’s electricity generation in 2018. Brazil’s latest 10-year energy plan seeks to […]
The 1.78MW system is being installed by Ciel et Terre on a recycled water storage facility in the town of Windsor. It will provide 90% of the treatment and pumping station’s electricity needs. The modules […]
BayWa r.e. and Ocean Sun were amongst players promoting their floating solar feats at an Intersolar 2019 session, held to check the pulse of the still-embryonic technology. The floating solar debate took stock of how […]
A floating solar array naturally causes shading of the water surface,and with it,a drop in water temperature.This can be advantageous,when employed on reservoirs, as the amount of water lost through evaporation is reduced,although the rate […]
Growing resistance to the construction of fields of solar panels and wind turbines on land has led the renewable energy industry to look for alternative options. In order to overcome to this challenge, Dutch engineers […]
Dutch renewable energy developer GroenLeven is set to develop the largest floating PV project in Europe, a 48MW installation that will be installed at an area in the Netherlands owned by Kremer Zand and Grind […]
