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