The solar station has started operations and will produce electricity of 3.1 million kWh annually.
Innotech Solar EMEA Sales & Marketing director Thomas Hillig said, "Our modules have an extra small carbon footprint. The production of modules with conventional solar cells consumes around 90% more energy than the production of ITS modules, which are made of optimized solar cells."
The mdp Group CEO Hans-Helmut Kutzeer said, "We made the deliberate decision to employ only workers from the region. It was important for us to install modules from a European manufacturer instead of equipment from China."
The solar facility will supply energy to around 800 households.
Work on preparing the ground began in late January 2012, with construction of the solar installation beginning in March.
