Problem
Many commercial, industrial, and municipal organizations face challenges in reducing energy costs and meeting sustainability goals due to limited space or land constraints. Traditional ground-mounted solar installations may not be feasible or optimal for organizations located near inland freshwater bodies or those with valuable land that could be used for other purposes.
Solution
Noria Energy provides on-site solar energy solutions, specializing in floating solar arrays, that enable commercial, industrial, and municipal customers to reduce energy costs, leverage renewable energy incentives, and achieve sustainability goals. Their patented AquaPhi™ technology allows floating solar islands to autonomously track the sun, increasing energy production compared to fixed systems. Noria Energy offers full-service power purchase agreements (PPAs), development services including designing, permitting, and engineering, and feasibility studies to assess the technical, environmental, and financial viability of solar systems. Their floating solar solutions also offer water quality benefits, such as reducing evaporation and decreasing harmful algae blooms.
Target Audience
