Offshore Floating Solar Beats Land-Based PV on Output in Taiwan Study
Key Takeaways
- Taiwan researchers compared offshore floating PV with a ground-mounted solar plant.
- The offshore system produced about 12% more electricity over its lifetime.
- Researchers linked the gain to cooling and intertidal effects.
- The offshore option remains about 30% more expensive and faces marine engineering challenges.
