A SolarSea® platform on its way to its final position.
We assemble the platforms on the island, then tow them out and moor them in place on the lagoon. In the Maldives, weather and tides can shift within hours, so plans are made and remade daily - a true challenge that our team has learned to accept as a daily reality.

Over 50 MWp installed.

A quiet moment at the end of the day on site. Behind every solar installation in the Maldives is a multinational team working far from home, adapting daily to the sea and the weather. We're driven by a simple vision: a cleaner future for islands.

When we deployed our first floating solar platform in a Maldivian atoll in 2014, "offshore solar" wasn't really a category yet.
Twelve years on, Visit Maldives has written a piece about how floating PV is reshaping the country's energy mix — featuring SolarSea at Cheval Blanc Randheli (2.4 MW, ~USD 1.5M/year diesel savings) alongside our wider deployment across more than 50 resort islands.
It means a lot to be featured by the Maldives' official tourism authority.

Floating solar at sea, how the Maldives is redefining energy for island tou... At Cheval Blanc Randheli, a large-scale floating solar installation, developed by Swimsol, now powers resort operations during daylight hours

The perfect trio of blue: ocean, lagoon, and solar panels. Island by island, we’re helping power the Maldives with sunlight. ☀️🌊
Clean energy can blend beautifully into island landscapes while helping reduce diesel use and support a brighter future.

Our latest SolarSea project is now fully commissioned at Taj Coral Reef Resort & Spa Maldives 🌊☀️

The 1,060 kWp floating solar system, combined with a 1,200 kWh grid-forming battery, allows the resort to operate up to 11 hours per day without generators — significantly reducing diesel consumption.

A strong step forward for island energy.
Thank you to the Taj team for the collaboration 👏

Taj Coral Reef Maldives commissions floating solar park – Hotelier Maldives

At the close of 2025, we commissioned a 1,180 kWp rooftop solar system at Finolhu – a Seaside Collection Resort in the stunning Baa Atoll 🌴☀️
This system helps the resort save around 460,000 liters of diesel and cut down 1,200 tons of CO₂ every single year.

We’re proud to support another world-class Maldivian resort on its journey to clean energy — and grateful to the fantastic Finolhu Baa Atoll team for the smooth and inspiring collaboration 💚
