This turnkey required plant will have a maximum power generating capacity of 5MWp and is due to be connected to the national grid in 2011.
Compared with coal generated electricity, the power plant will save around 6,500 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions each year.
The project will consist of approximately 23,000 multicrystalline PV modules over an area of nearly 110,000 square metres, and 42 grid connected central inverters will convert DC electricity from the modules into network compliant AC electricity.
Together with planning and construction, the order also requires that a variety of official permits and approvals are obtained, all of which are now in place.
The property and project rights have been secured by M+W Group, the parent company of M+W Solar, for 20 years.
