Floating Solar Solutions

It’s made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Advantage of HDPE include
its strength, resistance to corrosion and ease of recycling.

Floating PV systems are anchored using a variety of methods, including
• Mooring lines and weights
• Anchors fixed to the lakebed
• Tethering to nearby structures
• The choice of anchoring method depends on the water body’s depth, current,
and other environmental factors.

Maintenance is similar to that of land-based solar panels, including cleaning
and inspection. However, additional care is required to check the integrity of the
floating structures and anchoring systems.

The initial cost of floating PV systems can be higher due to the specialized
floating structures and anchoring systems. However, they offer cost savings in the
long run through increased efficiency, reduced land use costs, and potential water
conservation benefits.
