HelioRec CEO Featured in pv magazine Global

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 that meets both environmental and societal challenges.

“I’ve learned to let the mission speak louder than the doubt.” - Polina Vasilenko.

At HelioRec, we are reshaping how clean energy is produced by bringing solar power to the water. Our floating solar power plants are designed specifically for marine and urban waterfront environments, offering an alternative to land-intensive energy projects.

Why Floating Solar is Essential:

✅ No land use conflict – solar energy without occupying valuable land

✅ Modular and scalable – ideal for use by ports, utilities, and coastal municipalities

✅ Resilient design – suitable for areas affected by urban density or rising sea levels

Innovation at HelioRec is also rooted in diversity. We believe that diverse teams — in gender, background, and expertise — are key to building resilient, forward-thinking solutions. This inclusive approach not only drives creativity but strengthens our ability to serve real-world energy needs.

Innovation often begins where others hesitate to look. We’re demonstrating that floating solar is not only possible — it is necessary for a sustainable and equitable energy future. Read the full article: pv magazine Global
