The farms will supply over 30 million kWh of power per year.

“Getting a volume of over 30MW ready for operation in such a short time and successfully selling installations this large is something to be proud of,” said Dr. Frank Asbeck, chairman and CEO of SolarWorld AG. “You need the years of experience of Solarparc as well as the support of a strong manufacturer like SolarWorld to be able to pull off such an achievement.”
