2. INTRODUCTION:
Ever increasing power demand & depletion of fuels.
Leads to shift our focus to renewable energy sources.
Wind & hydro RE sources are area specific.
PV can be installed ay any place. Floating solar PV
results is decrease in cost.
Major issue of solar PV is requirement of land.
But floating solar can be installed on any water
bodies.

more land

4. FLOATING SOLAR

5. All India Installed Power generation capacity 2,55,013
MW which includes 31,692 MW (RES)
12 %of the total capacity.
India has taken a challenge of 1lakh MW capacity
Sl.no Parmeters Capacity(MW)
1. Small hydro 3840
2. Wind power 21136
3. Bio gas 4120
4. Solar power 2632
Total 31692
Installed Capacity of RES in India:

6. Concept:
It is a new concept for power generation by Solar photovoltaic
system
Floating solar power is a innovative concept in energy technology to
meet the needs of our time
This technology replaces the installation of photovoltaic power
plants over precious land.

7. Photovoltaic Cell:
Itis a device which converts light into electric current using the photoelectric effect.
There are large water bodies available in various parts of the country which can
reduce the savings for the cost of land and can reduce the expenditure for power
generation expenses.
So the floating solar PV systems can become a very logical alternative for
harnessing solar energy by utilizing existing water bodies and help to increase the
economic viability of solar projects.

8.  Floating System
Anchoring System
PV System
Underwater special marine Cable
The PV floating plant consists

9. A floating platform which allows the installation of
the PV systems with having walkway for
maintenance.
Floating System
Anchoring System To enable the platform adjust to water level
fluctuations while maintaining its position in a
southward direction.
PV System
USMC
PV generation equipments, conventional PV
module or specialized CPV modules or equivalent
devices, which are installed on top of the floating
system.
Transfers the generated power from land to the
PV system.
There are a number of benefits which can be
drawn from installing Floating PV system, as
outlined below.

10. Data is collected from jan 2017 to dec 2017.
Monthly average generated quantity 12,900 kwh
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS

11. COMPARSION
FLOATING PV OVERLAND
Floating solar panels (blue) having 10.3% more efficient than overland system

13. ADVANTAGES
 ( i ) Economical and technical benefits
No land acquisition required for floating
PV projects
 Protects ecologically sensitive areas
Drastically reduced installation time a
n
d
associated costs due to very limited site
preparation needs
Water for cleaning the panels (& hence
enhancing efficiency) is readily available.

14. DISADVANTAGES:
Folating solar plant as a problem with end-user
power demand and supply not being
synchronized.
The access to the installations is critical when
working off-shore.
Infrastructure is costly when working off-shore.
