“The PV system in Portugal proves Hanwha Q CELLS´ expertise as full-service-provider regarding the development and EPC of PV power plants,” said Frank Danielzik, vice president development/sales and EPC, Hanwha Q CELLS.

“Investors in PV projects are looking for reliable contractors offering top-quality modules, excellent services and strong financial stability to guarantee their project´s successful realisation as well as long-term operation,” added Danielzik.

The plant was built in five weeks. The company claims that its modular power plant construction means that it has reduced the construction time to less than a day per MW.
