The Solution
The Tracking Floating PV Solution in the World
Developed by SOLARISFLOAT, PROTEVS is a unique project in the world that will certainly bring new challenges for the environment, economy and the solar photovoltaic industry.
Made of modular floating platforms with tracking capabilities, this floating photovolta¬ic solar system is a modular, detachable, scalable, reliable solution, with an easy installation process.
To keep and prevent early aging and the impact of weather conditions, the thermoplastics materials, specifically developed for PROTEVS, have a high impact resistance and very high resistance to UV, to guarantee the best performance of the product life cycle.
Only due to the extension of the reservoir area of the existing dams it is possible, within 2/3 years, to meet all immediate power generation needs in most countries where there is an increase in electricity consumption.
Countries strong in hydropower are priorities to receive floating PV. For example, in Brazil 8% of the area of the biggest 165 dams are sufficient to supply 80% of the needs of electricity of the whole country
