Floating Solar Solutions - PV Systems
2023-12-12Floating Solar Solutions - PV Systems
For the past decade, we have been dedicated to the design and construction of floating PV systems. Our system is constantly improved to endure the hardest environmental conditions such as strong wind, heavy weight, violent impact, corrosion, and UV degradation.
Solar photovoltaic power is one of the most important and well-established renewable energy sources. According to the World Bank, floating solar power can double the existing installed capacity of solar power as there are more than 400,000 square kilometers of man-made reservoirs in the world such as swamps and reservoirs.
Mibet focuses on providing eco-friendly, reliable and efficient floating PV solutions. With leading industry experience, expertise and proven results, Mibet’s achievements have made itself a first-class provider of floating solar installations. Our floating PV technology has been proved to have a lifespan of over 25 years.
Types of Floating PV Systems
Mibet offers different types of floating PV systems to suit your needs. The three types are as follows:
● Full Plastic: the floating body and the solar panel mounts are lightweight due to being entirely made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE).
● Plastic + Aluminium Alloy: the floating body is made of HDPE and the solar panel mounts are made of aluminium alloy, with magnesium aluminium zinc coated alloy also available.
● Plastic + Stainless Steel: the floating body is made of HDPE and the solar panel mounts are made of stainless steel.
Anchoring System
The mibet floating PV system will be fixed by an anchoring system. Usually, we choose the anchor point under the water, while the anchor point on the water’s surface will be also working. The procedure of installing the anchoring system will be designed in accordance with the conditions of the water area.
1. When the variation in water level is less than 1 meter, the system will be fixed by sinkers or stones with ropes.
2. When the variation in water level is less than 3 meters, the system will be fixed by sinkers or stones with ropes, and springs will be used for extra reinforcement.
3. When the variation in water level is more than 3 meters, the system will be fixed by sinkers or stones with winch ropes.
Our Product Solutions
With our floating PV system design, we have transferred our cutting-edge ground-mounted technology for the efficient and safe use on water. Our system is based on a long-lasting floating mounting substructure and comes with a highly-standardized, fully VDE-certified electrical block design. Our integrated mooring and anchoring concept is a key competence, which allows for stormproof solidity and security.
With our floating transformer station, we do not need extra space on shore and the transformation to medium voltage can be carried out directly on the water. In addition, we have always taken into account environmental preservation when designing our floating PV solutions, such as biodiversity, sustainability, landscape integration and safety for the residents around the lakes. We attach great importance to these aspects and consider them in each of our installations.
