here is some slides about floating solar power plant . it shows how a floating solar power plant works.thought it helpfull to everyone who wheresearching for the working of a solar power plant.also included types and basics and kerelas floating power pants

4. what is floating solar PV ?
UNDERSTANDING
SOLAR PV
4

5. IT IS A TECHNIQUE OF
INSTALLING PV ON WATER
BODIES INSTEAD OF
CONVENTIONAL PLACE LIKE
LAND OR ROOFTOPS
5

6. NEED FOR
FLOATING PV
• Solar photovoltaic (PV) installation has
the burden of intense land requirements,
installing solar PV on water bodies can
resolve this issue
6

7. COMPONENTS
OF PV SYSTEM
Floats
Pontoon
Mooring system
Solar PV module
Cables and connectors
Floating structures
7

8. FLOATS AND
PONTOON:
• Multiple plastic hollow float with effective
buoyancy
• This floats combine together to form a
giant pontoon
• A pontoon is a flotation device with
buoyancy enough to float by itself as well as
with a heavy load
8

9. MOORING SYSTEM
• It is a permanent structure which
keeps the floating panels on same
position
• Prevents them floating or turning
away
• Mooring system platforms can be
done by using nylon rope slings
9

10. SOLAR PV MODULE
• Standard polycrystalline solar PV modules
are used for floating system
• Standard aluminium frames are fast
degrading material in salty water

11. CABLES AND
CONNECTORS
11

12. CABLES AND CONNECTORS
Electricity is drawn
from the solar array
and transported to
the land
The power can be
fed to the grid or
stored in batteries
High temperature resistance,
water proof and robust cables
are to be used to provide a long
service

13. FLOATING STRUCTURE
• FTCC • Submerged photovoltaic solar panel
13

14. FLOATING STRUCTURE
FTCC:
• The system consists of a raft supporting
standard photovoltaic panels
• The Floating Tracker Cooling
Concentrator(FTCC)uses reflectors to
increase the efficiency
• The FTCC also uses
SUBMERGED PHOTOVOLTAIC
SOLAR PANEL
• In this configuration the panels are
immersed in water and this allows
us to realize a gain in efficiency in
summers due to cooling effect.
• It is designed in Infratech industries

16. HYDRELIO Floating solar component
The latest floating structure are installed at
Nishihira and Highashihira ponds inkao city
by century Tokyo leasing corporation
They are designed typhoon proof(due to
their sturdy, high-density polyethelene and
array design

17. PV FLOATING PLANTS OUTLINE

18. ADVANTAGES
• They reduce reservoir water evaporation and algae
growth by shading the water
• Floating Platforms are 100% recyclable
• Due to the cooling effect of water this kind of
generating system typically generate more electricity
than ground-mount or rooftop systems
• It can withstand extreme physical stress, including
typhoon and storm conditions
• More module can be installed compared to the other
system
18

19. DISADVANTAGES
• The key disadvantage of the floating solar panels
is the large cost of installation
• Moreover, securing profitability at the same time
is also challenging
• Another con associated with these panels is that
they cannot be installed in the sea as the waves
prevent their angular position and the wind speed
impacts the amount of electricity generation
19

20. VARIOUS INSTALLATION PLACES
• OFF SHORE PV INSTALLATION • RIVER PV INSTALLATION

21. COMPARISON
BETWEEN
FLOATING AND
OVERLAND PV
21

22. CONCLUSION
• This concept is innovative because, about 70%
of the earth’s surface is covered with water!
So it is only logical to use it to generate
cleaner electricity. I think that the
manufacturer has tackled most of the possible
drawbacks despite a critical few. Therefore,
personally, I think that this is a concept that
should be encouraged and further developed
upon. The plant is said to be finished by 2018
and I am among the many whom are eager to
observe the outcome of this project!
