SINGAPORE: One of the world’s largest single floating solar photovoltaic (PV) systems might soon find a home in the waters of Singapore’s Tengeh Reservoir.
In a bid to reduce its carbon footprint, national water agency, the PUB, will seek proposals from companies to design, build, own and run the nation’s first large-scale floating system of solar panels that will power water treatment processes.
