With renewables, marine photovoltaic (PV) harnessing solar energy gains momentum, promising vast ocean space for power generation with significant benefits.Recent studies indicate that while marine PV systems are designed to address environmental challenges, they can also cause unintended ecological consequences.
Marine solar energy—floating photovoltaic arrays deployed on ocean surfaces—represents a promising frontier in clean energy production, offering up to 20% higher efficiency than land-based systems due to the cooling effect of water.
Marine PV also shows potential for powering integrated systems, such as offshore desalination units, where AI-driven optimization can enhance both energy efficiency and environmental safety (Jathar et al. 2024). Coordinated development with aquatic ecosystems is essential for the sustainable deployment of marine PV.
Marine PV systems are mainly classified into pile-fixed and floating photovoltaic (FPV) power plants (Zhu et al. 2024). Pile-fixed systems are typically deployed in shallow mudflat areas with stable geology, low wave intensity, and water depths under 5 m.
It will be co-located with the existing Fengxian offshore wind farm, allowing for more efficient use of marine space. With a planned installed capacity of 500 megawatts, the facility is
