The agreement will help the company perform all the quality assurance tests and the safety-related tests of the electrical installation according to the applicable standards and the comprehensive criteria of TÃœV Rheinland.
Conergy Global Large Projects vice president Heinz-Peter Tienken said, "With this step, the leading independent testing institute of the sector confirms that our quality standards in planning and plant construction far exceed the levels generally prevailing in the industry and that our customers receive a thoroughly secure deal from a single source."
TÃœV Rheinland Solar Energy Assessment Centre head Wilhelm Vaaßen said the testing carried out with the company’s expertise and the certification of the large Conergy plants to TÃœV Rheinland’s standards is a first in the industry.
"The aim is to offer investors optimum security and transparency," Vaaßen said.
"With this partnership, we are going down new avenues to foster the concept of quality and ensure bankability for large plants in a comprehensive manner."
Conergy performs quality criteria during the planning and implementation of the plants apart from all the safety-relevant tests, and measurements during commissioning to ensure high yields and maximum security for the long term.
TÃœV Rheinland will cover safety, conformance to standards, functionality and performance of the plants as categories for testing and certifying.
TÃœV Rheinland will also repeatedly check to maintain the plants and to safeguard the yield during operation.
