CA License # 759086 System Design 38kW Demonstration Installation of 2010 Floatovoltaics ® 200kW Installation at Far Niente Why Floatovoltaics®? SPG Solar’s Floatovoltaics® is at the hub of the energy‐water nexus. When SPG Solar installs a Floatovoltaics® system, our customers not only receive a state of the art solar PV system, but also receive a wealth of additional benefits: Consumes No Land and Capitalize on a Non‐Revenue Generating Area Land is a valuable resource that should be used optimally for farm or industrial production. SPG Solar Floatovoltaics® enables customers with no available land or roof space to enjoy the benefits of solar while capitalizing on typically non‐revenue generating area—water. Improve Water Quality SPG Solar Floatovoltaics® not only saves productive land, but also conserves valuable fresh water for generations to come. As water bodies are exposed to the sun, photosynthesis promotes the growth of organic matter including algae. The algae is typically not desirable, can clog pumping and filtration systems and requires costly chemical treatment to control the problem. Installing SPG Solar Floatovoltaics® will shade the water and reduce photosynthesis. This in turn will reduce the formation of algae and reduce your chemical and operational costs. Cooler Water = Cooler PV Panels = More Power Production Solar PV panels perform better in cooler conditions. By installing SPG Solar Floatovoltaics® over water, not only is the water cooled by the 100% shade but the panels will be naturally cooled resulting in improved power production performance.

  • Design and Development of a Low Cost Floating Solar Power Plant
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, Volume 8, Issue 2, February-2017 1202 ISSN 2229-5518 DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF A LOW COST FLOATING SOLAR POWER PLANT SUNIL AMBADIPUDI#1, SRINIVASA RAO GAMPALA#2, S.VENKATESWARLU#3 Assistant Professors, Dept of Mechanical Engg, Swarna Bharathi Institue of Science and Technology, Khammam Abstract— the constant rise in green and sustainable energy demand has been shifting the global focus to develop technologies to utilize the renewable energy sources to the maximum extent possible. Solar energy, owing to its availability across the globe in abundance along with its pollution free nature, is considered to be the best renewable energy source. One of the major challenges posed by solar energy systems is the requirement of large area of land to mount the PV panels. As the availability of land is becoming scarce and the cost of it is increasing day by day, technological solutions to utilize water bodies to mount PV panels are being explored. The PV panels when floating on water, are expected to stay cool and hence would generate more power than those setup on land.The floating solar panels help preserve water levels by reducing evaporation during extreme summers, they also limit the growth of algae and in turn improve the acquatic life sustainability. This work is aimed to design, develop and demonstrate a low cost floating solar power generation module, which can be utilized, in multiple ways, to boost the rural economy.

  • Floating Photovoltaic Systems: Photovoltaic Cable Submersion and Impacts Analysis
    Floating photovoltaic systems: photovoltaic cable submersion and impacts analysis Ricardo Rebeloa,1, Luís Fialhoa,b,2, Maria Helena Novaisa,b,3 aRenewable Energies Chair, University of Évora, 7000-651 Évora, Portugal bInstitute of Earth Sciences, University of Évora, Rua Romão Ramalho, 7000-671, Évora, Portugal 1 [email protected] [email protected] 3 [email protected] Abstract Floating photovoltaics (FPV) is an emerging technology that is gaining attention worldwide. However, little information is still available on its possible impacts in the aquatic ecosystems, as well as on the durability of its components. Therefore, this work intends to provide a contribution to this field, analysing possible obstacles that can compromise the performance of this technology, adding to an increase of its reliability and assessing possible impacts. The problem under study is related to the potential submersion of photovoltaic cables, that can lead to a degradation of its electrical insulation capabilities and, consequently, higher energy production losses and water contamination. In the present study, the submersion of photovoltaic cables (with two different insulation materials) in freshwater and artificial seawater was tested, in order to replicate real life conditions, when FPV systems are located in reservoirs or in the marine environment. Electrical insulation tests were carried out weekly to assess possible cable degradation, the physical-chemical characteristics of the water were also periodically monitored, complemented by analysis to detect traces of copper and microplastics in the water. The results showed that the submersion of photovoltaic cables with rubber sheath in saltwater can lead to a cable accelerated degradation, with reduction of its electrical insulation and, consequently, copper release into the aquatic environment.

  • Techno-Economic Analysis of Floating PV Solar Power Plants Using Active Cooling Technique
    Techno-economic analysis of floating PV solar power plants using active cooling technique A case study for Taiwan Antoine DIZIER Master of Science Thesis KTH School of Industrial Engineering and Management Energy Technology TRITA-ITM-EX 2018:678 Division of Heat and Power Technology SE-100 44 STOCKHOLM Master of Science Thesis TRITA-ITM-EX 2018:678 Techno-economic analysis of floating PV solar power plants using active cooling technique A case study for Taiwan Antoine DIZIER Approved Examiner Supervisor Björn Laumert Rafael Guédez Commissioner Contact person Abstract The development of large scale solar photovoltaic (PV) power plant is of great interest, especially in regions with favourable weather climate conditions such as Taiwan. However, designing large scale systems brings several challenges, including land availability as well as dealing with high temperature impact on PV modules. Combining floating PV plant (FPV) and active cooling system is a promising collaboration, using water availability on site to cool down the PV panels on a regular basis. FPV plant can be installed on unused water bodies to save land for other activities. Spraying water on the PV modules can help increase daily production and reduce system losses. The utilization management of such cooling system needs to be planned and optimized, according to local meteorological conditions. Therefore, this thesis study aims to investigate the impacts of implementing an active water cooling system on the FPV plant techno-economic performance. The objective is to design different cooling utilization strategies and analyse the behaviour of the FPV plant, evaluating whether or not the combined FPV and cooling system is technically efficient and economically viable.
