Does Floating photovoltaic (FPV) affect the aquatic environment?

With the aggravation of global warming and the increasing demand for energy, the development of renewable energy is imminent. Floating photovoltaic (FPV) is a new form of renewable energy generation. However, the impact of FPV on the aquatic environment is still unclear.

How FPV will affect the fishery and photovoltaics integration project?

With the increase of coverage ratio, FPV will lead to the overall reduction of T w in the construction water area, and the distribution of T w will be more uniform. For the “fishery and photovoltaics integration” project, reducing the peak T w in summer and reducing the diurnal fluctuation are more conducive to the growth of fish.

How does Fishery and photovoltaics integration work?

However, in the “fishery and photovoltaics integration” project, a large amount of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are discharged into the water area, which will significantly increase the concentrations of nutrients and algae. In addition, significant biofouling is observed at the interface between the buoy and water (Fig. 5 c1–c2).
