HelioRec wins marine classification nod for floating solar platform

French floating solar company HelioRec has received approval in principle (AiP) Level II from Bureau Veritas Marine & Offshore for its floating solar solution.

According to HelioRec, the classification covers marine design requirements under BV offshore and mooring regulations, including floating wind turbine structures, material and welding standards, offshore unit classification, mooring systems, fatigue of top chain lines, and risk-based qualification of new technology.

“The AiP confirms that the core design choices and system architecture meet marine classification requirements ‘in principle’ – a vital step in scaling our floating solar technology across ports, coastal municipalities, and offshore infrastructure,” the company said in a social media post.

The certification reflects the technical feasibility and integrity of its marine energy system, HelioRec said.

At the beginning of this month, HelioRec completed operations and maintenance (O&M) activities on its 250 kW floating solar installation at Domaine de Cicé-Blossac in France.

In August 2024, HelioRec earned B Corporation (BCorp) certification from B Lab, a nonprofit organization that certifies companies for their social and environmental impact, marking its commitment to a more sustainable and equitable future.
