Emerging Energy Solutions : Floating Solar Photovoltaic on the Rise (English)

A significant benefit of floating solar is that it doesn’t take up valuable space on land - meaning that it can be used for other purposes, such as farming or construction. Installing floating solar farms on bodies of water, such as reservoirs, avoids this issue.
