Floating device for the installation of offshore photovoltaic panels and installation method

A floating device for the installation of offshore photovoltaic panels, the floating device being characterized in that it comprises:

• a plurality of main floating bodies, arranged such that they define a floating plane, the main floating bodies being configured to displace at least 80 cubic metres of water in total;
• and the most distant of the plurality of main floating bodies being spaced from one another by at least a distance of 10 metres, wherein the main floating bodies comprise several leak-tight compartments isolated from one another;
• a plurality of floating supports configured to join the plurality of main floating bodies together wherein each floating support of the plurality of floating supports joins one main floating body of the plurality of main floating bodies in one joining point;
• a plurality of poles arranged along each of the main floating bodies, each pole having a first end that is joined to a main floating body of the plurality of main floating bodies and a second end opposite to the first end, wherein each of the poles measures at least 5 metres, wherein a first group of the poles are arranged perpendicular to the floating plane, wherein a second group of the poles are arranged forming an angle comprised between 5° and 60° with respect to the floating plane and wherein at least one of the poles of the first group of poles and at least one of the poles of the second group of poles share a point of origin in the floating plane;
• a support cover joined to the second ends of the poles, wherein the support cover has a surface of at least 100 square metres;
• at least one anchoring element;
• and
• a mooring structure configured to join the main floating bodies and/or the plurality of floating supports with the anchoring element.
