Note: 1) "Pipeline" means potential projects where the Group is in discussions with possible customers, but where no binding contract or commitment exists. The likeliness of such projects
Inspired by nature, we provide the lowest cost and the best performing floating solar system available on the market
The second phase of the Banja project, the installment of three additional floaters, was completed during December . The installation was carried out within plan and budget, with significant improvements to the installation speed as compared to the first floater .
The system is producing according to expectations and confirm the positive results seen from the first floater, operational since 1st of April 2022 . For 2023 , the 2 MWp system is expected to generate almost 3 GWh of electricity .
The plant is Ocean Sun's first multi -ring system and as such an important milestone, demonstrating Ocean Sun's ability to provide utility -scale projects .
Ocean Sun and Statkraft have an agreement to construct a 2 MWp floating solar power plant on Statkraft's 72 -megawatt hydropower plant in Banja, Albania . The system consists of four floaters of 0 . 5MWp each and will produce energy to the Albanian national grid .
The pilot period of this cutting -edge project is ongoing with sea trials of a 0 . 5 MWp offshore system connected to a wind turbine . During the pilot period we will demonstrate the systems performance and optimize the design for the harsh conditions .
Once the pilot period is completed, the intention is to connect floating solar to other wind turbines at this location . Pending successful results, the accumulated capacity of Ocean Sun FPV will be 20 MWp in 2023 .
This R&D project in Shandong is Ocean Sun's first offshore FPV plant and the first ever FPV integrated with offshore wind . The system is owned by SPIC with Sunneng Technologies as the EPC . It was constructed on -shore and towed 30 km off-coast to its final position in the Yellow Sea where the mooring was installed .
SPIC (State Power Investment Corporation) is the world's largest PV asset owner and will likely be a major contributor to the Shandong Province's plan for 42 GWp of off-shore solar in the next few years .
Following the technology upgrade on Magat during the fall of 2022 , Ocean Sun made diligent studies of the replaced panels looking for microcracks . After 3 , 5 years in operation, no microcracks were found on the 150 modules examined . Complementing previous tests and theoretical research, this further proves that the Ocean Sun membrane is an excellent habitat for a solar panel and that walking on a module supported by an Ocean Sun membrane does not damage the panel .
The demonstration plant on the Magat Dam is located in the middle of the Philippine typhoon belt and is designed to withstand wind -speeds up to 275 km/h . The system is owned by SN -Aboitiz Power (SNAP), a 50 /50 joint venture between Scatec and Aboitiz Power, a large IPP in the Philippines .
The system was commissioned in June 2019 and has withstood four typhoon seasons without damage to the system . During the fall of 2022 , Ocean Sun and SNAP carried out a larger technology upgrade with new PV panels and improved cable management . This increased the nominal power from 223 kWp to 250 kWp and made the performance of the system more stable .
In March 2022, Ocean Sun and Sunseap signed an agreement for a 1.2 MWp floating PV project to be deployed near shore in Singapore.
The detailed engineering and design of the two-float system has been completed. Orders for materials are expected to be placed during Q1 2023, with construction of the system taking place in Q3 2023.
When completed, the system will be the largest floating solar installation in the Singapore Strait and will pave way for utility-scale developments in Singapore and Southeast Asia.
In July 2022, Ocean Sun and Keppel signed an agreement for a 1.5 MWp floating PV project to be deployed near Jurong Island in Singapore.
The project is funded by a government grant and was selected because of its potential for commercialization and scalability. Keppel, a powerhouse within construction and energy developments, has ambitious plans for floating solar in Singapore and SEA. The project is expected to be completed in Q4 2023.
Ocean Sun has signed an agreement with Sunneng Technologies and String Capital, a Beijing-based energy investment fund, for the construction of a 1 MWp near-shore demonstration unit outside Yantai in Shandong Province.
In 2021, MP Quantum Group (MP) and Ocean Sun signed a long-term collaboration agreement for floating solar in Greece and the Republic of Cyprus.
During 2022, work has intensified around two demonstration facilities, for which license fees have been paid. Permits, off-take agreements and construction plans are being finalized by MP, while Ocean Sun has prepared the detailed engineering and design of the facilities. In addition, MP is working on a legal framework to simplify the permit application process for future utility-scale installations.
Many countries in SEA are ideally suited for FPV as they are densely populated, have land scarcity, have high and increasing need of power and good irradiation. The waves nearshore and on larger lakes along with exposure for typhoons have proven challenging for alternative technologies. The Magat facility's increasing track record and several notable partnerships give credibility to OS and comfort around our solution.
Statkraft's multiring installation attracts international attention and has received visits from several interesting potential customers, with more to come.
