Floating solar - Ciel et Terre

THE SYNERGY BETWEEN
THE SUNSHINE AND
THE POWER OF WATER

Floating solar,
ingenious and bold

Floating solar is qualified as the « 3rd pillar of solar industry », alongside with ground and rooftop PV.

Basically, water bodies are covered with PV modules thanks to a floating structure. Floating solar is the smart combination of floats and solar panels, the whole system being anchored at the bottom, to the banks or both.

Indeed, it aims to produce renewable energy where land is scarce, not to mention the complement energy generation by other energy facilities.

Floating solar plants can be used by companies, industries, public institutions or local authorities throughout the world. They meet on-site clean energy needs or inject electricity into the grid.
