Minister Borne and state secretary Poirson attend launch of Akuo’s 17MWp O’MEGA1 plant, built over 12 months and featuring Ciel & Terre Hydrelio HDPE platforms.

Eiffel Investment Group’s fund will help raise citizen capital for France’s self-styled largest floating PV project, a Ciel & Terre-equipped plant being built since last year.

The 1.78MW system is being installed by Ciel et Terre on a recycled water storage facility in the town of Windsor.

Ciel & Terre Brasil, a subsidiary of French floating PV specialist Ciel & Terre, has completed Brazil’s first floating solar project, standing at 304kW capacity on a rainwater accumulation pond at Fazenda Figueiredo, Cristalina, in the state of Goias.

A Dutch consortium of government agencies, R&D facilities and solar companies have launched two of four pilot floating solar projects on the Slufter on the Maasvlakte, a water region used for contaminated harbour dredging sludge.

Construction of Europe’s largest floating solar PV array is underway on London’s Queen Elizabeth II reservoir, where the installation will help Thames Water meet its target of self-generating a third of its own power by 2020.
