Sand banks in the Eastern Scheldt started to erode after the Eastern Scheldt storm surge barrier was built. A large-scale nourishment of the Roggeplaat is planned to mitigate this effect. During the dredging works the water column will temporarily become more turbid because of the increased sediment concentration. The potential negative impact of sediment plumes are the transport of sediment to locations with a valuable benthic flora and fauna including mussel plots.
Floating solar panels provide a new and innovative way to generate sustainable energy. A large research project on solar panels will be conducted by TNO in the FieldLab Westvoorne. Floating solar panels have the potential to generate energy more efficiently than land-based panels due to:


During this internship you will, based on research carried out during this nourishment, gain more insight into the added value of unmanned surface vehicles (USV) equipped with sensors. A key aspect will be the determination of the water quality during the dredging activities resulting in an estimate of the impact of sediment plumes on mussel plots in the Eastern Scheldt.
·        Ability to rotate with sun to create an optimal angle with the solar radiation constantly


'''Research type:''' Field research
·        Cooling of the solar panels by the water


'''Research level:''' Water management students or Civil engineering students; minor or internship.
·        Reflectance of solar radiation off the water surface


'''Prerequisite:''' interest in technology, morphology, and fluid dynamics
TNO will mostly focus on the engineering aspects of floating solar panels. HZ has been tasked to conduct research on ecological and societal impacts and opportunities of these floating solar farms. For example, what are the effects of the solar panels on water quality? How does this vary spatially and temporally (e.g. seasonally). Can we create new ecological habitats to enrich the area ecologically? How do users of the area perceive about these floating solar panels? Do they consider them a risk or an opportunity?
