FLOATING SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC ARRAY WITH ON-BOARD ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING AND POWERING INFLATABLE SUPPORT PONTOONS, WATER QUALITY, AIR COMPRESSION AND MOORING DEVICES
A floating solar photovoltaic array having an energy management power control system configured to send power clipped by an inverter to the at least one powered accessory device which can be an aerator, a diffuser, a sub-surface agitator, a sub-surface water circulator, a sub-surface positioning/mooring system, a water quality sensor; a panel washer, or a bird removal system. The array has inflatable pontoons and an air manifold system which is powered by the solar photovoltaic modules can be used to adjust the angle of inclination of the solar photovoltaic modules to the sun. The powered accessories can also be powered by unclipped power or onshore power or combinations thereof which can be controllably adjusted by the energy management control system over time.
Floating type solar power generation equipment stage device
Provided is a floating type solar power generation equipment stage (10) device, comprising a carrier (1) and a plurality of floating collars (2). The carrier (1) is made of a hard material, and has an outer frame portion (11) in a horizontal direction and a link bar (12) disposed at the center of the outer frame portion (11). Further, the outer frame portion (11) is vertically disposed with a plurality of straight strip-shaped bonding columns (13) downwards, and an adjustment portion (14) for adjusting the buoyancy of the stage is disposed on the carrier (1). Each of the plurality of floating collars (2) is a buoyant hollow ring, and its center has a sleeve hole (114) into which the bonding column (13) can be inserted so that the floating collars (2) can be arranged vertically up and down on the bonding column (13), and the stage (10) can be floated on the water with vertical buoyancy. Moreover, there is a water flow spacing between the vertically arranged floating collars (2), thereby having better floating stability and maintaining ecological functions.
CONTROLLED FLOATING SOLAR MODULE
A buoyant module comprising a base configured for being buoyantly supported within a body of water, wherein said base defines a space which is in fluid communication with said body of water; a fluid-holding container sized and fitted for being received within said space and for moving in a vertical dimension relative to said base; and wherein a vertical position of said container relative to said base is determined, at least in part, by a fluid level in said container.
