Aluminum Structure and Patented Catamaran Design From a technical standpoint, the solution replaces conventional plastic floats with a naval-grade aluminum structure, a material that offers greater mechanical strength, durability, and stability over time, in addition to being non-flammable, UV-resistant, and 100% recyclable. The system adopts catamaran-shaped floats with patented technology, contributing to greater plant stability and better load distribution on the water surface. The structural design also enhances modularity, allowing adaptation to different project configurations. Another differentiating factor is the inclination of the modules. While the market standard for floating systems ranges between 8° and 10°, the solution allows installation with up to 15°, increasing irradiance capture and, consequently, energy generation. The solution uses less material compared to traditional plastic systems, while maintaining structural and operational performance. According to the companies, the cost remains compatible with technologies available on the market, with additional gains in efficiency, logistics, and operation. Simplified Operation and Maintenance In the operational field, the structure was designed to facilitate operation and maintenance activities. Access to the modules is possible from both sides, reducing intervention time and minimizing impacts on generation. The system incorporates a technical walkway with embedded cable trays, responsible for organizing cables and integrating electrical equipment. This layout allows for the installation of inverters close to the strings and ensures direct access to the module connectors. Another advantage is the use of lightweight vessels for maintenance, facilitating movement within the plant and reducing operational costs over time. International applications and performance The solution was developed to meet the demands of both the electricity sector and agribusiness, including applications such as generation for irrigation systems and the use of idle water areas. International projects have already validated the technology's performance. In plants implemented in European countries, increases of 5% to 7% in energy generation were recorded, accompanied by a reduction in operating and maintenance costs. Solution for floating plants incorporates a "mini-factory" and production of 1 MWp per week.
