As of 2022, global installed FPV capacity stood at 13 gigawatts (GW), up sharply from just 3 GW in 2020. Extensive water surface availability and increasing government investments in solar infrastructure have positioned floating solar as a critical component of the renewable energy transition. With more than 6,600 water bodies suitable for installations, the World Bank estimates a technical potential exceeding 4,000 GW globally if just 10% of these areas are utilized.
Key Highlights from the Report
➤ Global floating solar panels market to reach US$ 84.9 million by 2032 at 5.55% CAGR.
➤ Installed FPV capacity rose to 13 GW in 2022, reflecting exponential adoption.
➤ Asia-Pacific projected to account for 81% of global installations by 2033.
➤ Offshore FPV projects emerging as major growth drivers in Japan, India, and South Korea.
➤ India leads with landmark projects like NTPC Ramagundam (100 MW) and Kayamkulam (92 MW).
➤ Global potential exceeds 1,302 terawatt-hours (TWh) annually with 10% water surface coverage.
Market Segmentation
The floating solar panels market is segmented by product type, location, technology, and region.
Product Type: The market includes tracking floating panels and stationary floating panels. Tracking systems, though costlier, boost efficiency by optimizing sunlight capture throughout the day, while stationary panels dominate lower-cost applications.
Location: Offshore projects are gaining momentum due to large-scale installation capacity and government support. India, Japan, and South Korea are investing in offshore developments-such as South Korea's 2.1 GW Saemangeum project-that demonstrate the scalability of FPV technology.
Technology: Most FPV systems use photovoltaic technology, though research in concentrated solar power (CSP) and concentrator photovoltaics (CPV) is expanding potential energy output.

Regional Insights
Asia-Pacific: Fastest-Growing and Dominant Region
The Asia-Pacific region leads the global floating solar panels market, driven by rapid industrialization, energy demand, and government-backed renewable policies. China, India, and Indonesia are forecasted to achieve a combined 31 GWdc installed FPV capacity by 2033, representing more than half the regional share.
India continues to spearhead this expansion with flagship projects like the 600 MW Omkareshwar Floating Solar Power Park and NTPC's 100 MW floating plant in Ramagundam, Telangana. With approximately 1.7 GWdc of new FPV capacity expected to become operational in 2024 alone, Asia-Pacific remains the cornerstone of global capacity growth.
Europe: Emerging Hub with Sustainable Initiatives
In Europe, countries such as France, Germany, and the Netherlands are advancing FPV adoption despite regulatory hurdles. Collectively, these nations are projected to represent over 60% of Europe's FPV capacity by 2033, focusing on inland reservoirs to support nationwide decarbonization goals.
Market Dynamics
Market Drivers
The rising adoption of floating solar technology supports more efficient land use, enabling countries to generate clean electricity without devoting valuable land resources. Floating arrays not only generate renewable energy but also reduce evaporation and algae growth in water bodies. Increasing commitments to net-zero emissions and breakthroughs in power infrastructure continue to propel market growth.
Market Restraints
High initial investment and complex installation requirements are key barriers. Anchoring and mooring costs, coupled with structural reinforcement needs, make capital expenditure higher than land-based solar farms. Operational management and maintenance logistics on water surfaces also present unique challenges.
Market Opportunities
Technological innovations, such as lightweight composite framing and dual-use hydropower reservoirs, promise enhanced efficiency and cost reductions. Additionally, expanding research in offshore floating solar and hybrid renewable systems combining wind and solar power provides avenues for growth, particularly in densely populated or land-scarce regions.
