Project milestones, policy developments, and industry analysis from India's leading floating solar company.
Project milestones, policy shifts, and market analysis - all the stories shaping India's floating solar landscape, curated by the team building it.
Reliability comes from the whole system, not just the float - qualified materials, connections, mooring, electrical interfaces and a maintenance plan that can actually be carried out on water.
Read Article102.18 GWp of potential and a new 5,000 MW Surya Sarovar scheme - why floating solar deserves attention at Renewable Energy India Expo, 22–24 October 2026, where Floatex Solar will show 3D models of its projects.
Read ArticleA 99% availability figure can still hide a real energy shortfall - how to diagnose underperformance by separating performance, availability, curtailment and data losses.
Read ArticleStart from a conventional PV model, then replace ground-mounted assumptions with float-specific evidence for temperature, irradiance, losses and uncertainty.
Read ArticleWalkways, jetties, work zones and rescue routes planned around real O&M tasks - before the general arrangement is frozen and access fixes get expensive.
Read ArticleA fire on water is harder to reach, not easier to fight - why floating solar fire safety starts with early detection, granular isolation and emergency access designed into the array.
Read ArticleComponents will fail over 25 years - the real question is what the rest of the plant does next. Damaged-condition analysis, redundancy, electrical isolation and FMECA.
Read ArticleAt 100 MW or 200 MW, array shape stops being a layout issue and becomes system architecture - how engineered blocks shape mooring, electrical isolation, O&M access and load management.
Read ArticleEvery reservoir has waves - the question is whether they exceed what the floats, connectors and mooring can take. Fetch, wave period, array response and when a breakwater is actually worth it.
Read ArticleOnce a floating solar farm is running, the engineering task changes - mooring inspection, cable movement, monsoon planning, SCADA and access for the next 20 years.
Read ArticleA plant isn’t commercially operational just because the last island is built - mechanical checks, block energisation, SCADA and grid-interface testing, the trial run and handover on the way to COD.
Read ArticleFrom NTPC Ramagundam to Omkareshwar - eight honest engineering lessons from our first 1 GW+ of floating solar, across reservoir design, mooring, buildability, electrical systems and commissioning.
Read ArticleThe array is not the final stage - how cable engineering, shore landing, substations and transmission routes get power off a reservoir and into the grid.
Read ArticleA 25-year design life is a planning limit, not a demolition date - remaining-life assessment, recycling routes and repowering shape the end-of-life decision.
Read ArticleBefore financial close, lenders need evidence - not assumptions. Reservoir data, mooring, grid, energy yield, contracts and O&M.
Read ArticleAsh ponds, cooling ponds and process reservoirs are infrastructure systems, not blank water surfaces - the site-specific design logic industrial floating solar demands.
Read ArticleHow shading and altered water flow affect dissolved oxygen and aquatic life - plus the monitoring and design steps to take before deployment.
Read ArticleInside Malaysia's first hybrid hydro-solar plant - engineering, economics, environmental impact, and the lessons for gigawatt-scale FPV expansion across Southeast Asia.
Read ArticleHow regional cooperation, integrated grids, and floating solar are turning Asia's clean energy future into a shared, cross-border effort.
Read ArticleFrom site survey to commissioning - how Floatex turns engineered designs into floating solar power plants operating on water.
Read ArticleFrom dead-weight to pile and rock-based anchoring - how the right anchoring keeps floating solar stable across changing conditions.
Read ArticleA large-scale industrial floating solar deployment at GAIL's Pata complex - engineering, anchoring, and grid integration.
Read ArticleWhy large floating solar behaves like infrastructure - array behaviour, anchoring fatigue, interfaces, electrical stress and construction realities.
Read ArticleOffshore FPV, hybrid platforms, vertical bifacial panels, smarter electrical design, and data-driven operations - what's next for floating solar.
Read ArticleLarge pipelines, policy backing, climate finance and scale economics - why capital is moving into floating solar.
