Project Focus: Premier Power’s second 1MW solar plant operational and connected to grid

Premier Power Renewable Energy’s second 1MW solar power plant in the Puglia region of Italy has become operational and connected to the power grid. The project is part of a series of solar project by the company for Italian customers. This solar plant is connected to the Enel electric power grid at a medium voltage of 20 kV.

“The connection of the Monteparano solar power plant to the power grid, our second in a series of pipelined Italian projects, shows our ability to complete projects on time and as promised for our customers,” said Dean R. Marks, chief executive officer of Premier Power.

The solar plant uses Canadian Solar 230W crystalline silicon (cSi) modules and Power One 330kW Aurora Inverters.
