Floating Solar Power Plants

Floating solar systems can be installed on water surfaces that are technically, environmentally and legally suitable, such as dam reservoirs, irrigation ponds, artificial lakes and industrial water basins. Suitability is assessed by examining the purpose of the water body, seasonal level changes, depth, wind and wave conditions, shore access, ecosystem sensitivities and grid connection options together. Since not every water surface is suitable, a comprehensive site and feasibility study is required before the project.

During design, we assess the size and depth of the water surface, seasonal water level changes, wind and wave loads, the reservoir bed and shoreline, water properties, mooring points, platform movements, cable routes, grid connection and maintenance access. These data allow the layout, floating platforms, mooring arrangement and electrical infrastructure to be designed specifically for the site.

1. Site and Feasibility Analysis: Assessing the water surface, site conditions, access and energy generation potential.
2. Design and Engineering: Preparing the system layout, energy yield calculations and project-specific technical design.
3. Floating System Coordination: Planning platform, mooring and anchoring systems according to water level, wind and wave conditions.
4. Electrical Infrastructure and Grid Integration: Designing DC and AC systems, power cables, shore connections and the grid connection.
5. Procurement and Site Works: Selecting equipment in line with technical specifications, coordinating procurement and on-site installation.
6. Commissioning and Monitoring: Carrying out system tests, acceptance procedures, performance monitoring and operational readiness.
