<dcterms:abstract>El objetivo de este proyecto era proponer un diseño de una planta fotovoltaica&#xd;
flotante no solo funcional, sino también económicamente rentable en un país con unas&#xd;
condiciones climáticas adversas para la energía solar como es Finlandia.&#xd;
En esta memoria se pueden encontrar los principales hallazgos en múltiples campos&#xd;
como localización, tipos de paneles, diseño de la estructura flotante o técnicas para&#xd;
mejorar el rendimiento de los paneles. A continuación se presenta un diseño final al&#xd;
que se ha llegado mediante un proceso iterativo en el que se descartan las opciones&#xd;
que presentan mayores complicaciones o son sencillamente inviables. En la parte final,&#xd;
se exponen un estudio económico y un estudio medioambiental que concluyen que el&#xd;
diseño es viable en ambos aspectos. Por tanto, la energía fotovoltaica instalada en la&#xd;
superficie de lagos puede ser de ayuda en la transición a un modelo energético limpio&#xd;
y renovable en Finlandia</dcterms:abstract>
<dcterms:abstract>This Final Report is the culmination of a four month long design study on floating solar panel&#xd;
park feasibility in Vaasa, Finland. The Floating Ideas Team was tasked with coming up with a&#xd;
design that would not only work, but also make a profit. The team focused a lot of time on initial&#xd;
research, an iterative design process, and experiments to gather information that could not be&#xd;
found during the research phase.&#xd;
In this report, one can expect to find the major findings from research in many different areas&#xd;
such as location, panel design, flotation design, cooling techniques, and efficiency adding&#xd;
techniques. The first takeaway is that implementing floating solar parks in Finland would require&#xd;
adding efficiency techniques such as mirrors or concentrators. Second, how the panels are&#xd;
placed means a lot in a location so far north. Placing the panels far away from each other and&#xd;
horizontally will reduce the negative impact of shadows. And third, the rotation of the structure is&#xd;
important in increasing efficiency. Multiple axis tracking is not necessary, but tracking in the&#xd;
vertical axis can add a 50% increase in power generated.&#xd;
This research then lead into the defining of four initial designs which were eventually paired&#xd;
down into one. The largest factors leading to the change in design were the combination of&#xd;
rotation and anchoring methods, the flotation structure, and the structure required hold the panel&#xd;
modules together. In the end, the final design is a modular circular design with panels and&#xd;
mirrors to help add efficiency, approximately 37%.&#xd;
From there, an economic and environmental feasibility study was done and for both, this design&#xd;
was deemed feasible for Finland. With the design, detailed in this report, it would be possible to&#xd;
implement this and make a profit off of it, leading the team to believe that this should be&#xd;
implemented in places looking for alternatives for renewable energy production.</dcterms:abstract>
