Introduction Floating solar design is strongly influenced by environmental loads. Wind, waves, current, and water-level variation do not act independently; together they determine how the floating platform moves, how loads are transferred through connectors and support elements, and how the mooring system must be configured to keep the plant stable and serviceable over time.  For a professional project, these conditions are not treated as secondary details. They are core desi

Introduction A floating solar power plant is a photovoltaic installation deployed on a water surface rather than on land or on a rooftop. The system is typically installed on lakes, reservoirs, industrial basins, or other sheltered water bodies where the environmental conditions, access constraints, and operating requirements are compatible with floating infrastructure.  At a basic level, the concept combines conventional PV modules with floating support structures, connector

On 5–6 November 2025, the HelioRec team participated in Solar & Storage Live Paris — and what an energizing event it was! Across two dynamic days, we held meaningful conversations with professionals from all corners of the solar and storage industries. It was especially inspiring to see the growing interest in floating solar — particularly from those focused on optimizing space use and accelerating the clean energy transition. As urban and coastal regions seek sustainable en

We’re proud to share that our CEO and founder, Polina Vasilenko, was recently featured in pv magazine Global as part of their Women in Solar+ Europe series — a recognition of the leaders driving meaningful change in the renewable energy sector. In the interview, Polina reflects on her 20+ years of experience in the energy industry and the journey that led to founding HelioRec. Her perspective highlights the need to rethink conventional energy models and embrace innovation tha
