Floating solar or floating photovoltaics (FPV), sometimes called floatovoltaics, are solar panels mounted on a structure that floats on a body of water, typically a reservoir or a lake such as drinking water reservoirs, quarry lakes, irrigation canals or remediation and tailing ponds. The systems can have advantages over photovoltaics (PV) on land. Water surf…
Fortunately, Indonesia has vast solar energy potential and also vast pumped hydro energy storage potential to store the solar energy overnight. About 25,000 square km of solar panels would be required to support an affluent Indonesia after full decarbonisation of the economy using solar power.
Indonesia''s maritime area of 6.4 million square km is 200 times larger than required if Indonesia''s entire future energy needs were met from offshore floating solar panels.

A good rule-of-thumb for solar battery cost is that the cost per kilowatt-hour ranges from $400 to $750. Therefore, a typical home solar battery is going to cost between $10,000 and $20,000, including installation costs. Depending on your energy usage and storage needs, you may be able to "stack" multiple batteries for greater …
