Impact assessment research on the techno-economic and enviro-economic implications of floating photovoltaic systems for wineries and vineyards (dam, lakes, canal, pond) are often characterized by interlinked complexities (see reference below). In these Floatovoltaic systems, photovoltaic solar panels can be mounted on floating pontoons on the winery's vineyard irrigation pond or irrigation dam to save land-space (Resilient Agriculture, Sustainable Agriculture and Sustainable Farming). I'm specifically interested in finding research reports that illustrate carbon footprint impact in international projects (even outside winelands applications) on floating renewable energy systems (RES) if anyone could share (including evaporation control and algal growth control) #floatingsolar #floatovoltaics #floatingrenewables.

Dear Sir,
You can use LCA approach..
Right from the production of PV Cell, Aluminum/ Steel Frames, Electrical eqiup./ Electronics used., and other accessories..
if you bring this electronics system to any factory gate then,
for fabrication of this in factory it required 173 watt for producing a Solar PV system of 1 watt capacity, which can produce this power in 34 days when it is installed....
now for minor things of we calculate . GRR (Green Rate of Return) will be around 60-70 days in total..
means, Solar PV can produce more power or emit less in its life cycle.
thanks
Dear Sir,
Here you can find, from an empirical result, an approach used:

Dear all,
This is a very interesting topic. I like the idea of using LCA, though some countries might lack data for application. The analysis might also depend on several parameters such as materials used for installation.
If you are interested in the environmental impacts of floating PV. I suggest you to look at this article "Is floating photovoltaic better than conventional photovoltaic? assessing environmental impacts". Article Is floating photovoltaic better than conventional photovolta...
I hope it helps.
