OverviewHistoryMarine installationsLake installationsInstallationTechnological innovationsAdvantagesDisadvantages
Floating solar or floating photovoltaics (FPV), sometimes called floatovoltaics, are solar panels mounted on a structure that floats. The structures that hold the panels usually consist of plastic buoys and cables. They are then placed on a body of water (e.g., Reservoirs, quarry lakes, irrigation canals or remediation and tailing ponds).
