FLOATING Solar PV stays COOL near WATER & retains efficiency

OPTIONS for Siting PV panels ; rooftop, solar farm, or Water/Reservoirs, Rivers, Canals, Ponds,Lakes,Dams Floating PV is popular in Asia; lack of free land. In Victoria some floating PV operations, some near Melbourne. REDUCE EVAPORATION from Reservoirs! SEA deployment possible, near Singapore & China, Coastal= smaller waves. In future floating PV will be developed for Ocean use, development underway. Huge potential. Rooftop PV loses Efficiency in temps over 30C, 10% loss, COOL WATER⛲
