Floating Solar Panel Farm

The main difference between floating solar panel farm and ground and rooftop photovoltaic power stations lies in that the foundation of floating solar panel farm is a floating and mobile structure. While ground and rooftop photovoltaic systems are fixed foundation support systems. Usually, the floating support system on water surface is much cheaper than the pile foundation. Moreover, due to the higher temperature on water surface which is more conducive to the operation temperature of photovoltaic panels, water surface floating photovoltaic power stations can generate more electricity.Generally speaking, the power generation capacity of floating solar plant is about 5% higher than that of a ground-based solar power station.

System Advantages

 

1. Structural Stability: The Seastar series adopts the combination of HDPE material and rigid structure, which not only meets the buoyancy requirements of the floating solar system but also enhances the stability of the entire formation.

2. Flexible Layout: This series of products can adjust the solar panel spacing according to customer needs and local natural conditions, maximizing the increase of the project system's installed capacity and optimizing the increase of power generation.

3. Modular Design: All products of this system have been designed in a modular and foolproof manner. The products are formed as a whole, with high recognizability, and are provided as a complete set. The installation process is simple, reducing a large amount of design, procurement, and construction content for customers.

For floating power stations on water, the anchoring system is of great significance and is also a key difficulty in the entire floating system. The anchoring system can be divided into shore anchors and sub-bottom anchors. Shore anchors are simply put, they directly drive the spiral piles to the selected anchoring points. Sub-bottom anchors require lifting the precast concrete anchor blocks to the predetermined and designated positions, sinking them into the water bottom, and then tying the anchor ropes. Corresponding anchor rope reserves should be reserved to adjust the length of the anchor ropes when the water level changes, so as to adapt to the ups and downs and left-right translations of the entire photovoltaic matrix.

The layout design of the floating body system takes into account the water area topography, reserved waterways, etc., and also needs to consider the capacity-matching ratio of inverters, the layout of anchoring systems, the arrangement of string inverters on the floating body array, and the setting of operation and maintenance channels.
