METHODOLOGY

To enable this 1 km²  Standard system, a comprehensive product improvement and component validation program (WP1), a 5 MW-scale offshore solar farm demonstration at an offshore test site (WP2), a holistic impact assessment (WP3), and a scaling plan for the implementation of a 1km²-scale project of 50-200 MW (WP4) will be developed. 

WPs 1-4 are jigsaw pieces that together form the puzzle to unlock expansion of large-scale offshore solar with minimized eco-impacts, low LCOEs due to cost reductions (CAPEX & OPEX) and improved yield performances.  

The overall methodology is structured along the Testing and Development Triangle as a de-risking tool using different testing options to make iterative improvements.
