The potential for floating solar in the UK

Floating solar photovoltaic (FPV) projects have been gaining attention in recent years. Occasionally referred to by the delightful portmanteau "floatovoltaics", these systems function exactly as the name suggests – an array of solar PV modules are mounted onto floating platforms that are permanently moored in a body of water, usually a lake or ocean bay.
