Italian agro-industrial group Cereals Docks has installed four solar rooftop arrays at two of its sites on the outskirts of Venice. The systems were installed by electrical engineers Elpo, which used over 15,000 polycrystalline modules and Sputnik Engineering’s SolarMax C central inverters to build the 3MW portfolio.
With an annual output of 1.54 million kWh of electricity, the Portogruaro array in eastern Venetia accounts for more than half the total electricity generation capacity of the portfolio. The three remaining systems, all located in Camisano Vicentino, will produce 1.46 million kWh.

“We are now able to look back on 20 years of experience in developing, producing and selling mains-coupled inverters,” Sputnik’s managing director Christoph von Bergen said. “Since 2007 we have been selling our SolarMax inverters also in the booming Italian market directly via our Milanese subsidiary. Large-scale reference systems such as with Cereal Docks demonstrate the reliability and the confidence of our customers in the Swiss quality of our products.”
