The project, which is situated in the Puglia region of southern Italy, has been connected to the Enel electric power grid, at a medium voltage of 20kV.

The company has installed Canadian Solar 230W crystalline silicon modules and Power One 330kW Aurora Inverters in the plant for the production of power.

This project also features racking system that are attached to the ground by 1m long steel screws, ensuring minimal disruption to the land and surrounding environment.

Dean Marks, CEO of Premier Power, said: “The connection of the Monteparano solar power plant to the power grid, our second in a series of pipelined Italian projects, shows our ability to complete projects on time and as promised for our customers.”
