Floating PV Plants is a must-have reference for anyone interested in the advances and scientific and commercial aspects of floating photovoltaics. Including information on FPV tests, environmental aspects, integration of the FPV to hydroelectric basins and other already existing structures, the authors combine their wealth of experience to present a theoretical, numerical, experimental and design-focused analysis of floating PV systems. Looking at design information on floating installation, addressing key design issues related to mechanical and electrical layout, and including the modeling design of successful case studies, this book presents wide coverage of advances in the Floating PV field. Investigates the installation of photovoltaic systems over the water's surfaceOffers theoretical and practical explanations on how to study, analyze and design photovoltaic energy systemsConsiders how the use of floating photovoltaic systems can work to fulfill domestic energy demand INDICE: 1.
