Floating Solar R&D
Noria Energy develops resilient, renewable energy systems that generate long-term value for your business or community.
Key Customer Segments
We serve a broad variety of customer segments! Hydropower, water utility/water treatment, agriculture & viticulture, community solar programs, mining operations, commercial and industrial customers – to name a few.
Those we work with most tend to be near inland freshwater bodies, have scarce or valuable land they would rather not use for a ground-mount solar system, are looking for ways to improve the quality of their water (see floating solar’s other benefits), and/or desire to access cost-effective renewable energy.

Floating Solar Benefits
Floating solar studies show multiple water quality and water retention benefits.
AquaPhi™
Advanced tracking solution for floating solar to improve your project economics.
Rotational Tracking
With Noria’s AquaPhi™ technology, floating solar islands autonomously and synchronously rotate to track the sun over the course of each day, producing more energy than fixed anchored systems.
Power & Controls
The AquaPhi™ platform is designed for reliable 24/7 operation. It uses advanced autopilot technology to accurately position and orient the floating islands, with real-time diagnostics for predictive O&M.
Thrusters
Powerful underwater thrusters capable of positioning the floating islands while rotating to track the sun.
Power On-Site Water Treatment
The same AquaPhi™ hardware used for solar tracking can be configured to power onsite water treatment and monitoring equipment.
