The impact of floating photovoltaic power plants on lake water temperature and stratification

Abstract Floating photovoltaics (FPV) refers to photovoltaic power plants anchored on water bodies with modules mounted on floats. FPV represents a relatively new technology in Europe and is currently showing a rapid growth in deployment. However, effects on thermal characteristics of lakes are larg...
