Floating Solar
We understand these complexities and offer thorough engineering and design solutions. Installation of FSPVs in marine environments is another significant challenge, with costs varying based on site conditions. We advise developers to conduct accurate site assessments and plan suitable mooring and anchoring systems before bidding on projects.
Thorough engineering and planning are essential for successful FSPV projects. Inventocean is dedicated to providing the expertise needed to ensure the long-term stability and success of floating solar installations.
Moreover, Inventocean is involved in a Joint Industry Project led by DNV (Det Norske Veritas) to develop standards for mooring and anchoring floating solar systems. Our team contributes technical expertise in analyzing complex offshore floating solar farms using MOSES software. We are committed to supporting this initiative and promoting reliable and efficient floating solar systems.
Floating Solar
The global Floating Solar Photovoltaic (FSPV) industry is expanding rapidly, with governments and private developers worldwide setting ambitious renewable energy targets. As a relatively new industry, FSPV relies on innovative technologies and expertise in flotation systems, mooring, and anchoring, which are not readily available in the global market.
Each FSPV site presents unique challenges, making proper planning and design of mooring and flotation systems crucial. Inventocean excels in providing comprehensive engineering solutions tailored to specific site conditions, ensuring that systems withstand severe storms and weather conditions for at least 25 years.
Our experience shows that mooring and anchoring are highly site-specific. Some reservoirs prevent anchors from being placed on the seabed, while others have uneven seabed profiles. Dams present challenges with large water level variations, and rivers impose high drag loads due to currents. Inventocean’s engineered designs ensure balanced load sharing and accommodate varying line stiffness to prevent uneven load distribution.
