Floating Solar: Saving Water & Powering Communities #climatetech #deeptech #water #sustainability
Manage episode 506046546 series 3568279
๐งโ๏ธ In Australia, 1 trillion litres of water vanish every year โ lost to evaporation.
But what if the solution was simpleโฆ and powerful?
Floating solar panels are changing the game.
They shade reservoirs, cutting water evaporation by up to 50%, *while also generating clean electricity*. Even better, the cool water underneath helps the panels work more efficiently than land-based solar farms.
That means:
โ
Saving billions of litres of water every year
โ
Powering homes, farms, and even hydrogen facilities
โ
Fighting drought and climate change at the same time
From one brilliant idea comes two big solutions: more water + more clean energy.
Because sustainability doesnโt have to be complicated. It just needs the right ideas in the right places. ๐โจ
