SAG Solarstrom has sold its 48MW Serenissima PV plant in Northern Italy to an unnamed institutional investor. The purchase contract, valued “in line with the market rate in the triple-digit million-euro range”, was signed on December 31, 2011 and is subject to the usual conditions precedent. Serenissima is the largest PV installation built by SAG Solarstrom to date, and its 200,000 ground-mounted solar modules will produce more than 64 million kWh of electricity per annum. The system was connected to the grid in late summer, thus meeting the August 31 deadline for Italy’s old feed-in tariff rate. Much of the funding for Serenissima came in the form of an €80-million financing commitment from Deutsche Bank.

    Photovoltaics International 16th Edition

    This sixteenth edition of Photovoltaics International marks four years of production of the quarterly journal. As always, our focus is on efficiency and quality improvement and cost reduction in manufacturing. As 2012 rolls along, companies are falling by the wayside due to supply and demand issues, ASP declines and drastic governmental subsidy cuts. A clear picture of 2012 is offered through papers from the likes of TÜV Rheinland, Fraunhofer ISE, SEMI PV Group and EPIA, amongst others.
