Floating solar or floating photovoltaics (FPV), sometimes called floatovoltaics, are mounted on a structure that floats. The structures that hold the solar panels usually consist of plastic buoys and cables. They are then placed on a body of water. Typically, these bodies of water are reservoirs, quarry lakes, irrigation canals or remediation and tailing ponds. Key points:Wannon Water plans to float 1,200 solar panels on a water catchment in WarrnamboolThe 500-kilowatt floating array will be the biggest of its type in AustraliaIt is expected to reduce emissions by more than 600 tonnes per year.
