Rotomoulded floating PV system
Worldwide, energy supply has become significantly more sustainable over the last years, and it will get even more sustainable the coming years. Several renewable energy sources, such as wind energy, hydrogen energy and solar energy are used to realize this. To generate solar energy, photovoltaic (PV) systems are needed, but they take up quite some space. Therefore, a floating PV system is used more and more often. But a floating PV system must float! That is where Rotovia comes in. With our unique rotomoulded floaters, any floating solar PV system is able to float for years.
Rotomoulded water floating solar panels
Rotomoulding is a process to create plastic products of various shapes and sizes. Plastic pellets are melted in a (custom) mould that is rotated. The material adheres to the walls in an even thickness. This results in a very durable and strong product.
Rotomoulding is a very suitable method to create floaters for water floating solar panels. It is a cost-effective and efficient manufacturing method. Floaters are large and complex structures, but we can create them without the need for expensive tooling. This results in lower production costs and it makes them more accessible to our customers. If there are any specific demands for the floaters of the floating PV panels, we are more than happy to think along. The rotomoulding technology allows for the development of custom floaters. They can be tailored to all needs and will be fully compatible with the floating PV system.
Accurate 3D scanning service for rotomoulded premium products
At Rotovia, we offer a comprehensive 3D scanning service, from physical scanning to post-processing. Our scanning service accurately measures rotomoulded products in 3D, providing extremely accurate measurement data. With this service, our customers not only gain precise 3D models of their custom moulded products, but also the ability to use the collected information in the design or quality control process.

Floating solar PV system, the benefits
Rotomoulded floaters for floating PV panels come with some important benefits, that other products do not have:
- Because of their very light weight, the floaters are easy to transport and install on the floating solar PV system.
- The floaters are extremely resistant to ruptures, mechanical damage and UV radiation. On top of that, they are corrosion-free. This makes them very durable.
- The wall thickness of rotomoulded floaters is uniform, which contributes to their solidity, stability and durability.
- The material used for the floaters is high-quality LLDPE, which makes the floating PV system strong and durable, even in the roughest waters.
