Project R-14599
Title
Nautical Sunrise: Survivability assessment, cost reduction pathways and environmental evaluation of offshore installed floating solar energy farms. (Research)
Abstract
Nautical SUNRISE is set to support the world's largest offshore floating solar power installation. The € 8.4 million project, supported with € 6.8 million of the HEU programme, will execute research and development on offshore floating solar systems and its components.
The project will provide valuable research to develop technologies to showcase an intended 5 MW offshore floating solar system using the modular solution of Dutch floating solar company SolarDuck.
The outcomes of the project will enable the large-scale deployment and commercialization of offshore floating solar systems in the future, both as standalone systems and integrated into offshore wind farms.
Period of project
01 December 2023 - 30 November 2027
