The company connected five solar farms in commercial and industrial areas in the Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Lower Saxony and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The farms will supply over 30 million kWh of power per year.
The company noted that its success was bolstered with the integration of Solarparc earlier this year. Solarparc is expected to handle the operational management for some of the projects. SolarWorld supplied 79,800 modules for the 18.8MW solar farm near Magdeburg. The company additionally provided 41,808 modules for a 10.2MW solar farm in Barth.
