The utilization of solar energy has witnessed significant advancements in recent years, with Floating Photovoltaic (PV) Systems emerging as a promising technology. This manuscript explores the advantages and disadvantages of implementing floating PV systems, considering their potential impact on energy generation, environmental sustainability, and economic feasibility. The global demand for renewable energy sources has led to innovative approaches in solar power generation, and one such development is the integration of solar panels on water bodies. Floating PV systems, also known as floating solar farms or floatovoltaics, involve the installation of solar panels on bodies of water such as lakes, ponds, reservoirs, and even the sea. This manuscript aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the advantages and disadvantages associated with floating PV systems.
