Floating solar, also known as "floatovoltaics", is an innovative method of generating solar energy by installing solar panels on floats on a body of water. This emerging technology is paving the way for new opportunities in the realm of renewable energy, particularly for properties with ample water bodies.
Floating solar installations come with a host of unique benefits:
Ideal for Bodies of Water: Reservoirs, ponds, and other water bodies that are not used for navigation or recreation can be effectively utilized for energy generation with floating solar systems.
Reduces Water Evaporation: Covering the water surface with solar panels can significantly reduce water evaporation, preserving valuable water resources.
Potential for Cooling Efficiency: The water underneath can naturally cool the solar panels, potentially improving their efficiency and lifespan.
