High-Resolution Floating Solar PV Data
This dataset contains over two years of 1-minute resolution data collected from four floating solar sites, as well as data from a land-based PV system co-located with one of the floating sites. The dataset includes highly granular module temperature measurements - five modules per floating site, with three sensors per module, totaling 15 module temperature sensors per floating site. In addition to the module temperature data, meteorological data collected at the floating sites is also included, along with traditional PV system-level parameters. The data is intended for analysis of solar energy production, efficiency, and performance degradation over time.
