Koen Burgers, CEO of SolarDuck, stated: “This certification is the result of true teamwork. It demonstrates the deep commitment of our people to building an organization that continually improves, innovates, and delivers solutions of the highest standard to our customers and partners.” The certification highlights SolarDuck’s efforts to advance the reliability and maturity of floating solar technology, meeting the growing demands of the renewable energy sector.
In addition to the ISO 9001 certification, SolarDuck recently earned EcoVadis certification, further demonstrating its dedication to sustainable practices and operational excellence. These achievements position the company to address the increasing and support the increasing interest in offshore floating solar solutions across renewable energy markets and related industries.
Earlier in 2025, SolarDuck conducted basin tests for its updated floating solar platform design at the Maritime Research Institute Netherlands (MARIN) as part of the DEI+ Merganser project. The tests, completed in collaboration with partners including MARIN, TNO, Deltares, TU Delft’s Technology, Policy and Management department, and the Netherlands Enterprise Agency, evaluated the performance of 54 interconnected platforms. The company plans to analyze data from these tests, focusing on platform motions, energy output, and marine life interactions, to refine its technology.
The DEI+ Merganser project serves as an operational laboratory for SolarDuck and its consortium partners, enabling the collection of critical data to enhance the design and efficiency of floating solar platforms. This initiative underscores SolarDuck’s role in driving innovation in offshore renewable energy, contributing to global efforts to expand sustainable energy solutions.
Located in the Netherlands, SolarDuck continues to lead advancements in offshore floating solar technology, leveraging its certifications and collaborative projects to deliver reliable, high-performance solutions for a cleaner energy future.
