IS FLOATING SOLAR COMPATIBLE WITH DRY PONDS? A pond can be dry for many reasons: ☀ weather (like droughts) 🌊 natural events (like tides) ⚙ the use of the pond (like water retention ponds, hydrodams, etc.). Floating solar can meet this challenge depending on how FPV solutions and projects are engineered and implemented, from the floating platform to its anchoring. On one hand, our floating solar technology for example adapts to the water variation thanks to its flexibility. On the other hand, two teams of anchoring experts ensures the relevancy and reliability of the chosen anchoring solutions: > An R&D team specialized in the development of smart anchoring systems, > Local anchoring design engineers who focus on the specificities of each project. Water level variations where ponds are fully emptied of their water are various: from few-meter depth to a dozen-meter-depth. Take a dive in the challenges of and solutions for floating solar projects installed in such conditions in our article. 👉 https://lnkd.in/eSy7--tR #floatingsolar #watervariation #solar #renewableenergy

🌞 Key Considerations for Optimal Photovoltaic Panel Installation As we continue to embrace renewable energy, installing photovoltaic panels is a top choice for many. However, optimizing their efficiency requires careful planning. Here are three essential factors to consider: - Location is Key: Always install panels in areas with maximum sunlight exposure. Avoid shadows and aim for direct sunlight to boost efficiency. - Tailored System Design: Choose the right capacity for your panels, inverters, and batteries based on your building's energy requirements and space availability. - Roof Readiness: Ensure your roof can handle the installation. Assess its structural integrity and consider necessary reinforcements or repairs to accommodate the weight of the panels. 🔧 Have you encountered challenges during photovoltaic panel installation? Share your experiences and tips below! #GWDEnergy #GWDChallenge #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability

The PV piles Installation Journey! ☀️⚡🔋 The installation of photovoltaic piles begins with site preparation, where the ground is surveyed and cleared of any obstructions. Next, the piles, typically made of steel or concrete, are driven into the ground using specialized equipment. These piles serve as the foundation for the solar panels, providing stability and support. Once the piles are securely installed, the solar panels are mounted onto them. This involves carefully positioning and securing the panels onto the mounting structures, ensuring optimal exposure to sunlight. Finally, electrical wiring is connected to link the panels together and integrate them into the electrical grid, ready to generate clean, renewable energy for years to come. #photovoltic #piles #installation #process #SolarEnergy #sustainable

E&I Team Lead/ Senior Engineer/ Surveyor/ Approval Expert at DNV UK (any shared views and opinions are on my own not the Company)
Compared to traditional ground-mounted and rooftop solar, the development of floating solar plants presents different challenges due to hydrodynamic loads on the structure, risk of corrosion and additional components to be designed, installed and maintained, such as the floats, the anchors and the mooring lines. These challenges are highly dependent on the location, size, type of water body, type of structure and environmental conditions. Performing a site-specific design and assessment will help to reduce risks for new and operating floating solar projects. DNV is well-positioned to advise on any issue or challenge related to the design, development and operation of floating solar plants. Thanks to our long-lasting history, both in renewables and in offshore structures, we have a holistic skillset and comprehensive experience to address the challenges of this exciting and promising solar application. #solar #PV #FPV #floatingsolar #waterbreaker #offshoresolar #solarfarm

🥉 Heroes of the Sustainable Energy Transition 🌍 Renewable energy from wind 🌬️ and solar farms ☀️ plays a pivotal role in the energy transition. In discussions about this transition, many focus on the technological advancements of wind turbines 🌪️, batteries 🔋, or solar panels ☀️, often overlooking the crucial role of civil construction 🏗️. Throughout my 12 years of designing and building large-scale energy and utility projects, I've observed that civil construction usually represents the largest portion of project budgets and often takes the longest to complete. The notion that transitioning to clean energy is simply about installing the latest solar panels and battery technologies 🔋 is exciting but fails to acknowledge the journey's complexity. While installing solar panels might take a few months, constructing the necessary civil infrastructure 🛤️ and connecting these resources to the grid can take years. 💡 The reason? A significant lack of innovation in construction! 🏗 Construction workers, the vanguard of this transition, urgently need breakthroughs that not only boost their efficiency but also accelerate our progress toward a sustainable energy future. #SustainableEnergy #RenewableEnergy #CivilConstruction #ConstructionTech #EnergyTransition #SolarEnergy #WindEnergy #ConstructionInnovation #FutureOfEnergy #3DMapping #AI
