The 16MW floating solar project in Guangdong province, located at the coastal edge, successfully withstood the typhoon, demonstrating its stability and wind resistance in extreme conditions.
The project utilizes the Mibet floating G5M system structure, covering an area of approximately 210,000 square meters, with an annual power generation capacity of about 16.632 million kWh. The system has received authoritative certifications
from international bodies such as SGS and TUV and features a “high-density polyethylene (HDPE) float + steel-aluminum” support structure. The float has passed industry-standard tests for UV aging, temperature cycling, and impact resistance, and is environmentally friendly and recyclable.
Mibet stated, “We stabilize the system through modular extension layout and embedded installation methods, increasing the buoyancy of each float to 150 kg/m². Combined with various anchoring methods and a multi-segment anchoring cable structure, we prevent damage to the station's structure from strong winds.”
The impact of this typhoon validated the project's stability, providing the industry with new safety standards for photovoltaics. In response to the threats posed by hurricanes to floating power stations, Mibet has created a role model for PV mounting systems.
