A floating solar mounting system, also known as a floating PV system, is a photovoltaic installation where solar panels are mounted on a structure that floats on a body of water. This system is designed to address land scarcity while maximizing solar power generation on underutilized water surfaces like lakes, reservoirs, and ponds.
Unlike traditional ground-mounted solar structures, floating solar mounting systems require specific design considerations to ensure buoyancy, durability, and stability. The system typically consists of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) floating bodies, corrosion-resistant aluminum or stainless steel brackets, and anchoring systems customized to the water depth and wind conditions.
