Project Focus: Evergreen Solar supplies modules for 8MW Neustrelitz, Germany plant

Marking the company’s largest module contribution in a single project to date, Evergreen Solar has revealed that it has supplied over 7MW of the total 8MW capacity of a new solar farm in Neustrelitz, Germany. Project developers IBC Solar Invest sited the plant on a 250,000 square metre former Soviet military training base, which required a munitions recovery service to rid the land of any mines.

“This is a milestone project for Evergreen Solar as we continue to expand our company’s global footprint with the largest installation in company history,” said Peter Rusch, Evergreen Solar’s vice president of sales for EMEA. “This project is especially significant as the land on which it is built has been completely remediated by IBC SOLAR and is now safe for everyday use.”
