Now listening via ABC Country Hour: Floating solar to cut evaporation and emissions

Published

The Australian-first research project installing floating solar panels on irrigation dams to mitigate evaporation and generate energy has featured on ABC's Country Hour. 

 

The research project – spearheaded by Ag Econ with support from CRDC – will test the feasibility of installing floating solar photovoltaic (FPV) panels on irrigation storages to mitigate evaporation and create energy.
