Unlike traditional floating PV, this innovative setup uses vertically mounted modules in an east-west orientation, separated by open water corridors \u2014 minimizing surface coverage while maximizing efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Reihen<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With a capacity of 1.87 MW and an expected annual yield of 2 GWh, the system covers only 4.65% of the lake surface, well below regulatory limits. It\u2019s designed to be storm-resistant, eco-friendly, and even creates new habitats for wildlife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this groundbreaking project, KBE Floating Solar Cables<\/a> were used to ensure safe and efficient power transmission via a floating cable system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
