A floating arrangement may include at least one support-floatation-unit for supporting a solar panel, the at least one support-floatation-unit has a main body having a flat base and at least one connection portion; and at least one connecting-floatation-unit having a flat base and at least one connection portion. The respective corner-connection-portions may be coupled together to form a connection joint connecting the support-floatation-unit and the connecting-floatation-unit in a side-by-side arrangement. A height from the base of the support-floatation-unit to the connection joint may be larger than a height from the base of the connecting-floatation-unit to the connection joint such that the base of the support-floatation-unit may extend downwards from the base of the connecting-floatation-unit by a depth which defines an additional displacement volume of the support-floatation-unit configured to provide additional buoyancy to support the solar panel.
