Several factors support this approach: • No land occupancy – The main advantage of floating PV plants is that they do not take up any land, except the limited surfaces necessary for electric cabinet and grid connections. Their price is comparable with land based plants, but floatovoltaics provide a good way to avoid land consumption.
The key advantage of floating arrays is they provide renewable power without occupying open, flat land that would otherwise be ideal for agriculture.
Floating solar photovoltaic (FPV) technology is gaining recognition as an innovative renewable energy option, presenting benefits like minimized land requirements, improved cooling
