Floating solar PV is an emerging technology with the potential for rapid growth. The demand for floating solar PV is expanding, especially on islands as the cost of the water surface is generally lower than the cost of land. Currently, most activity on floating PV relates to freshwater artificial reservoirs, but more and more technology developers are appearing for offshore applications . 2nd Annual Floating Solar PV Forum took a place as a two-day summit and explored the g

Floating solar, smart LED, integrated renewables-based systems, sustainable sedimentation and various other energy-efficient low carbon solutions implemented in EU port infrastructure and management practices were presented at the DualPorts final conference in Brussels. HelioRec in cooperation with GreenPipe presented 10kW floating solar project in Oostende Port . The system was installed 14th of January 2022 and produced more than 1.5MWh clean energy. Thank you very much fo

It was a great event at #vivatech2022 in Paris. We presented our #innovative technology and had fruitful discussions with potential customers and investors. In this year, 91,000 in-person visitors were able to discover all the innovations and attend the live conferences at the Porte de Versailles expo venue in Paris. The event reached 400 million people and had more than 3 billion views on social networks. The international dimension of VivaTech has been strengthened with

VISA Foundation and Village Capital initiated the Greentech Europe 2022 programme - a new project dedicated to supporting gender-diverse ventures creating sustainable economic, environmental, and social solutions across Europe. HelioRec was part of this programme and during 3 months showed exceptional results and was awarded the biggest grant fund! Thank you all who supported us and believe in our idea!

One of the most exciting news during this year, HelioRec is building 10kW floating solar power plant in Port Oostende in cooperation with Greenpipe International . At the first stage, the power plant will provide electricity to a warehouse in Port Oostende , where an old boat is being restored. This will minimize the use of the existing diesel generator and consequently 924 kgCO2eq. per year will be reduced. The main parameters of the system will be assessed by HelioRec's e

Our team achieved new milestone to the way of technology commercialization. Today we successfully completed wave tank testing at Ecole Central de Nantes with a great support from Marine Energy Alliance and BPI France . In this challenging time we could manage to build the full-sclale prototype and prove our “hydro-lock” ballasting feature. The idea of the “hydro-lock” feature is to keep water inside the floater to give additional mass and consequently additional stability w
