- Xfloat integrates BASF's Tinuvin® 2730 ED to protect HDPE floats from degradation.
- The stabilizer complies with EU Drinking Water Directive 2020/2184, Article 11(2)(b).
- Xfloat systems are certified under NSF-61 section 5 for use in drinking water reservoirs.
- A project in Singapore showed a 28% yield improvement with Xfloat's FPV-T technology.
Collaboration Overview
Xfloat Ltd., a leader in floating solar technology, has partnered with BASF to enhance the durability and sustainability of floating photovoltaic (FPV) systems. This partnership combines Xfloat's sun-tracking platforms with BASF's advanced light stabilizer solution.
Technological Integration
The collaboration integrates BASF's Tinuvin® 2730 ED, a proprietary light stabilization solution, into Xfloat's HDPE float design. This integration ensures long-term durability, allowing the floats to withstand harsh environmental conditions for over 30 years, aligning with the lifespan of solar modules.
Regulatory Compliance
The stabilizer complies with stringent drinking water regulations, including the EU Drinking Water Directive 2020/2184, Article 11(2)(b). Xfloat systems are certified under NSF-61 section 5, making them suitable for deployment in sensitive environments such as drinking water reservoirs.
Global Deployment
Xfloat's technology is already being deployed in regions including the United States, the Middle East, Europe, and Southeast Asia. A recent project in Singapore demonstrated a 28 percent yield improvement using their proprietary FPV-T technology.
