Fred. Olsen 1848 has successfully deployed a 124 kW pilot floating solar project in Risør, Norway, showcasing its key achievements in concept scaling, panel module assembly, and efficient infrastructure installation. The BRIZO floating solar solution, designed for ocean adaptability, moves to the next phase for a 3 MW commercial project, leveraging insights gained from the pilot. Key features include individual solar module movements, adaptability to environmental forces, a simple design, and cost-efficient O&M with an integrated catamaran vessel.
