6 FAQs about [Offshore solar power generation plans]

What is offshore solar?

RWE has more than 20 years’ experience in the construction and operation of solar power plants. Offshore solar has the potential to be an exciting evolution of onshore and lake-based technology and opens a new door to gigawatt-scale solar energy generation, particularly for markets who are experiencing the challenge of land scarcity.

Are solar farms a new standard in offshore energy farms?

These building blocks are to become a new standard in offshore energy farms. Placing solar farms within offshore wind farms will make better use of the sea space, increase energy output, provide more continuous power over the seasons and drive down costs for green electricity production and the energy system.

Can offshore solar technology be scaled up to 150 MW?

We are glad to announce the start of an EU Joint Industry Project in which offshore solar technology is scaled up to formats of 150 MW enabling to build Gigawatt scale farms. These building blocks are to become a new standard in offshore energy farms.

How much Sea area can be used for offshore solar PV farms?

In this study, we assumed that 1/100 of the sea area, featuring water depths lees than 60 m and distance to coastline <60 km, could be utilized for offshore solar PV farms based on project experience.

Can offshore solar power be installed in the North Sea?

It is currently building the first offshore solar farm to be installed within an offshore wind farm, at the Shell/Eneco Hollandse Kust Noord wind farm in the North Sea. A report from DNV GL in December 2020 predicted that the North Sea could host around 100 MW of floating solar capacity by 2030, and 500 MW by 2035.

What is offshore solar PV?

Offshore solar PV power is relatively new, with the first deployments dating back less than a decade. Piling and floating systems have emerged as the primary technologies employed in the construction of offshore PV plants.
