Floating solar that follows the sun.
We design and build floating two-axis sun-tracking structures for marine and coastal water — platforms that hold their panels to the sun through the whole arc of the day, without taking land.
Two-axis tracking on open water
The platform carries solar panels on open water and keeps them squarely facing the sun through the day. It is stable under working sea conditions, moored to the seabed, and scales by array to the site and the load.
Tracks in two axes
Panels turn and tilt to meet the sun squarely from morning to evening — the hours fixed arrays give away.
Held by tensegrity
A balance of tension and compression rather than a rigid frame — light, strong, and moving with the water instead of fighting it.
Grows its foundations
With Dr. Thomas Goreau, platforms are anchored and ballasted in Biorock mineral accretion — structure grown in place on the seabed.
Anchored by mineral accretion
Most floating structures are held down by things manufactured, shipped and sunk. Ours are held by structure that is grown in place — an ongoing collaboration with Dr. Thomas Goreau.
Anchoring
Biorock anchors the platform to the seabed — accreted structure that develops in position rather than being delivered and dropped.
Ballast, grown to specification
Beneath the floats, Biorock is grown to each client’s specification and serves as the stabilising weight for the platform.
Mineral accretion is living substrate — the same structure that holds a platform steady gives something back to the water it sits in.
Delivered complete
Each structure is engineered, built and commissioned by us, and delivered to the client complete and ready to operate. Prototypes have been built, put on the water, measured, and fed back into the next design.
Talk to us about a site
Tell us where it is, roughly how much power you need, and what the water is like — we will take it from there.
