Offshore Solar Energy

Floating solar uses similar technology to land-based solar but the modules and inverters are mounted on floating substructures and are secured to the seabed with mooring lines and anchors. CDA deploying photovoltaics at sea that can withstand the high waves, strong winds and the stresses caused by salt water.

Therefore, the substructure design and material selection differ significantly from lake-based floating photovoltaics systems.
