Floating solar panels are simple and powerful, and they can turn unused water space into a clean energy source.
The present solar power plant sector has various obstacles, including:
solar panels require a lot of land area, which is scarce in many European nations.
Solar roof-top installation is insufficient for all clients’ requirements.
Power plants have historically had poorer efficiency due to solar panels overheating on the ground (every 1°C of temperature rise correlates to a 0.5% loss in efficiency). To address these issues, The HelioRec approach intends to:
keep land free and put power plants on the sea.
make it possible to create the required volume of energy for all customers’ demands.
improve the efficiency of solar panels owing to the cooling action of water. HelioRec’s answer is a revolutionary floating solar technology created specifically for near-shore regions, which are home to half of the world’s population.
