International and local firms form joint venture to develop a record-breaking wind and floating solar venture behind one of the world's largest seawalls.
With Pakistan's water reserves fast depleting, floating solar will be key to conserving resources and producing cheap energy, said power minister Omar Ayub Khan.
The French firm sees huge potential for more floating PV in Brazil, which boasts substantial hydroelectric infrastructure and generates 64% of its electricity from hydro power.
Chinese state-owned developer CECEP has completed a 70MW floating solar project in a former coal-mining area of Anhui, China, in collaboration with French floating solar specialist Ciel & Terre.
