D3Energy Energizes 1.4 MW Floating Solar at Universal Epic Universe

Orlando – October 06, 2026 -- D3Energy has energized a 1.4 MW floating photovoltaic system at Universal Epic Universe, part of a broader 3.7 MW on-site solar program expected to generate more than 6.7 million kilowatt-hours annually -- enough to power over 900 homes.

Epic Universe becomes first theme park to earn LEED Platinum certification

The certification was awarded under LEED for Communities: Plan and Design, with the overall three-installation solar program managed by Qcells and the floating solar component delivered by D3Energy.

Floating array links solar generation directly to electric bus charging

Power generated by the floating system is stored in batteries during the day and used overnight to charge Universal's electric bus fleet, connecting solar generation, battery storage and electric transportation in a single operational loop.
