Floating solar
Floating solar solutions
Harvest Green Developments delivers floating solar solutions that allow businesses and organisations to generate renewable energy without using valuable land.
By installing solar arrays on reservoirs, lakes and other suitable water bodies, floating solar enables large-scale energy generation while preserving land for operational use or future development. With extensive experience in delivering solar projects at scale, we help organisations unlock this growing technology safely and effectively.
Why floating solar?
Floating solar offers a practical alternative to ground-mounted or rooftop systems where land availability is limited. It is particularly well suited to sites with reservoirs, treatment plants or commercial water assets.
Generate clean energy without using valuable land
Improve panel efficiency through natural water cooling
Reduce water evaporation on reservoirs and lakes
Lower electricity costs through large-scale generation
Support sustainability and net-zero targets
Our floating solar approach
We provide end-to-end delivery, managing every stage of your floating solar project.
Feasibility and design
We assess your water body, site conditions and energy goals to design a safe, efficient system optimised for long-term performance.
Planning and grid applications
Our team manages all relevant planning, environmental and grid applications, working directly with DNOs and stakeholders.
Tier 1 technology
We use Tier 1 solar modules and floating structures designed specifically for water-based installations, delivering reliable performance over a 25+ year lifespan.
Health and safety
Robust health and safety processes are embedded throughout design, installation and long-term operation.
Installation and delivery
Specialist teams manage logistics and installation to minimise disruption and ensure a smooth, professional delivery.
Operations and maintenance
Tailored O&M packages protect system performance through monitoring, inspections and ongoing care.
Turning water into energy
Floating solar transforms underutilised water surfaces into long-term energy assets. Instead of competing with land use, your reservoir or lake becomes a source of clean electricity that supports operational needs and sustainability objectives.
Systems can be designed to meet on-site demand, export energy to the grid, or integrate with battery storage where appropriate.
Take the next step
If you’re exploring floating solar, our team can assess your site, outline generation potential and help you understand the commercial and sustainability benefits.
