Solar Floating Buoy

Product overview

Core functionalities

Applicable scenarios

Unique advantages

  • Solar Energy Generation: Converts sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic panels mounted on floating bases, designed to operate in aquatic environments.
  • Floating Stability: Utilizes HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) bases for durability and buoyancy, ensuring secure support for panels on water surfaces like lakes, rivers, or ponds.

Key features

  • 1. HDPE Material for Durability and Lightweight Design

  • With high-density polyethylene (HDPE) material, ensure long-lasting durability and corrosion resistance in aquatic environments. ~30% lighter than traditional metal floats*, enabling easier deployment and maintenance in water bodies.

  • 2. Modular Floating Base Design for Customization

  • With a modular floating base system, customize the layout and scale of the solar array to fit varying water body sizes and energy needs. More adaptable than fixed land-based systems*, allowing seamless expansion or reduction.

  • 3. Water-Cooled Solar Panels for Enhanced Efficiency

  • With solar panels integrated into a floating system, achieve up to 15% higher energy efficiency compared to land-based panels* by leveraging water cooling to maintain optimal operating temperatures.

  • 4. Space-Saving Solution for Land-Scarce Environments

  • Ideal for areas with limited land, this system generates renewable energy without occupying terrestrial space. Suitable for both residential and commercial use*, unlike traditional solar installations that require dedicated ground space.

  • 5. Eco-Friendly Material Compliance

  • HDPE material meets international eco-friendly certifications, minimizing environmental impact. Complies with marine and solar equipment standards*, ensuring safe and sustainable operation.
