Floating PV (FPV) Systems: Characteristics and Implementation

Roger Sim — Tue, 18 Jul 2023 08:32:08 +0000

Floating photovoltaic (FPV) systems offer great opportunities, particularly for countries with land constraints and available water bodies, like Singapore, Korea, Taiwan, Japan or the Netherlands. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, Floating Solar has continued its expansion, mainly in Asia and Europe. As of end of 2023, the cumulative installed global capacity surpassed 6 GWp. Although it is still considered a relative new technology, FPV systems have rapidly gained popularity worldwide where they have been installed under different conditions. In Singapore, these systems are of particular interest as be seen by the fact that the largest PV system in this country, is indeed a FPV system (60 MWp). Thus, more FPV deployments are expected locally and worldwide.
