PEI COUNTY: 9,982 kWp

Located in Jiangsu, China, this 9,982 kWp floating solar plant is installed on an irrigation reservoir with an area of 355,903 m² (35 ha).

The platform is equipped with Classic version of Hydrelio® technology and supports 42,240 floating solar panels of 60 cells (260W GCL standard modules). The total structure covers 29% of the water surface.

For this project, Ciel & Terre supervised the engineering of the floating PV system and the anchorage. Our scope included:

• Supply of our Hydrelio® (made in China) and design of the floating platform
• Design, supply and installation of the anchoring solution

Anchored at the bottom of the pond, the anchoring solution has been designed to meet a maximum 8.0 m depth and a same water level variation (8.0m, as the pond can be affected by drought).

Pei County’s floating solar plant has been operational since July 2017 and generates green electricity to the local grid.
