Under Phase I of Project Trullo, the seven 1 MW solar parks will produced a combined total of around 10,000 MW/h of energy per year. Each plant will be situated on three to four hectares. Ground mounted, fixed inclination crystalline solar panels will be used.

Econcern will own 51% of the holding company for Project Trullo. The Ampere Equity Agency owns the remaining 49%.

Econcern director of project development Dennis Lange said, The Italian solar market has exceptional growth potential. It is anticipated that it will grow from 280 MW installed by the end of 2008 to 5,000 MW by 2020. We have ambitions to become a leading player in the Italian solar market.
