Conceptually, I think floating solar could be more efficient, but it strikes me as having significantly higher installation and operational expenses vs ground.

Conceptually, I think floating solar could be more efficient, but it strikes me as having significantly higher installation and operational expenses vs ground. If you have nowhere else to install, sure, but I’m long odds that this is cost effective vs more panels installed (more cheaply) on the shore.
