Floating PV systems have emerged as a smart and sustainable solution for green energy production. But their long-term success relies on more than just panels and floats, it depends heavily on anchoring performance. Often invisible, the anchoring system is essential to...
Today we are giving the floor to Franck Knockaert, Industry and Quality Manager worldwide at Ciel & Terre, one of the key figures behind Ciel & Terre’s global industrial operations. Before diving into the Ciel & Terre’s manufacturing process and technical...
With its 120 MWp, Omkareshwar is a large scale FPV project in India, designed, supplied and built by Ciel & Terre local teams, and with L&T working on the project as EPC. The plant was installed in a year on a very large dam reservoir thanks to RUMSLi,...
Floating photovoltaic systems are an innovative energy alternative, particularly suited to areas where land availability is limited. However, their effectiveness depends on reliable anchoring, guaranteeing their stability against site characteristics and environmental...
EPC refers to contractors that handle everything from the design to the construction of a power plant. When you hire an EPC contractor for solar power installation, you benefit from comprehensive project proposals and a single point of contact in case of any issues....
Energy transition and sobriety are at the heart of the world's concerns and challenges. Floating photovoltaics (FPV) therefore have a key role to play in each country's energy mix strategy. If we take the case of France, the country has a geographical potential that...
The construction of a 20 MWp floating solar project in Leutenheim (Bas-Rhin, France), is now complete. This is the first large-scale floating solar power project in Alsace. It is also the first floating solar power plant built by Générale du Solaire, a French...
Floating solar panels are a promising renewable solution, yet winter weather conditions especially ice and snow, can significantly impact their efficiency. At Ciel & Terre, we have developed innovative solutions that could overcome these challenges and ensure...
While floating solar panels on hydro dams have great potential, there are several significant challenges to consider in their implementation. Despite a promising solution for sustainable energy generation, this innovative approach comes with its unique set of...
On the 26th of September 2024, Ciel & Terre International teams enjoyed participating to the world clean-up day once again. We are delighted to share with you that is our fifth edition! It’s been 5 years since our first contribution, and we are still as...
