How to make photovoltaic products float for 25 years?

The range of floating photovoltaic products is very wide, including solar modules, floating solar racks, solar accessories, etc.

-On August 8, Shanghai SNEC Exhibition sent a good report: the global application of solar power photovoltaic system on water surface broke through 1GW, becoming the world's first GW level photovoltaic system on water surface supplier.
-On August 13, Selangor 10MW floating photovoltaic project, the first floating photovoltaic project on water surface in Malaysia, which was constructed and debugged by state power investment and EPC, realized full capacity grid connected power generation.
-On August 18, according to a 25 year power purchase agreement, Singapore began to build a 60MW floating photovoltaic project in tengeh reservoir.

The floating photovoltaic enthusiasm still staying on paper forecast in 2019 has really come true.

1. History of floating photovoltaic on water surface
-In 2007, the world's first floating photovoltaic power station was built in Aichi Prefecture, Japan, and the second floating photovoltaic system was installed in Italy at the end of 2008. After that, France, Italy, South Korea, Spain and the United States also carried out small-scale experimental research and demonstration. The first commercial water surface photovoltaic device was a 175kwp system in a reservoir in California in 2008.

From 2014 to 2018, the global installed capacity of floating PV has increased by 100 times.

-In March 2016, Xinyi solar energy Co., Ltd. built a large-scale floating photovoltaic power station in China for the first time. Since then, the Three Gorges Group and other companies have successively built Huainan pacemaker demonstration base into the world's largest floating photovoltaic power station.

-By the end of 2019, more than 2.4 gigawatts of floating photovoltaic power stations will be installed in the world. China and Japan will become the countries with the largest application of floating photovoltaic power in the world, while the cumulative installed capacity of floating photovoltaic system of solar power has exceeded 1GW.

-In August 2020, Russian hydropower producer Rushhydro completed the construction of a 52.5KW floating solar power plant located in the Far East Amur region of Russia.

-In July 2020, Spain's first 1.125 MW floating solar energy device was connected to the grid, and all of them used double-sided double glass photovoltaic modules.

-In July 2020, the Tunisian state-owned utility, Ghana national electric power company (Steg), planned to build a 200kW floating photovoltaic power station in the capital Tunis lake.

-In March 2019, South Africa's first floating 60kW photovoltaic project was installed in a reservoir near a fruit farm outside franshuk, Western Cape Province.

-In September 2017, the Netherlands installed an experimental floating photovoltaic system in the port area of Rotterdam for the first time.

China's first large-scale floating photovoltaic power station is an 8MW floating photovoltaic system on water surface in the first phase of 30 MW ground photovoltaic power station in Linxi County, Hebei Province, which was connected to the grid in July 2015. Wuhu Sanshan 8.5 MW floating power station project has also been connected to the grid in August 2015. The 20 MW floating power station project in Huainan coal mining subsidence area also realized 15 MW grid connected power generation by the end of March 2016.
