Progress in Floating Photovoltaic Systems reflects the huge growth underway in floating photovoltaic (PV) systems, covering the latest technologies, new ideas, and practical solutions―currently available in the sector―to support further development and implementation.
This book begins by introducing floating PV, its potential, and its role as the third pillar of PVs, alongside land and roof. This is followed by in-depth chapters detailing materials and design of structures, tracking systems, cooling, cleaning systems, snow load and evaporation, mooring systems, PV modules and uses, hydroelectric coupling, wind load and wave impact, and offshore solutions. The final chapters provide measurements of existing plants, economic and financial analysis, and detailed information on environmental impact and mitigation.
This book is a valuable resource for researchers, graduate students, R&D professionals, electrical engineers, power engineers, and practitioners involved in PVs, solar energy, and renewable energy.
- Provides a global overview of floating PV technology
- Analyzes the advantages and limitations of the various available approaches and solutions
- Addresses key challenges, such as match and integration to existing structures, and reduction of environmental impact
