The company said that the proposed plant will have an annual output of around 18,900 megawatthours of electrical energy, and is expected to provide environmentally friendly solar energy to around 6,000 households.
M+W Group claims that compared with electricity produced from coal, this will mean a saving of about 13,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide each year.
In addition to the planning and construction, M+W Group’s scope of supply also includes support for official approvals that are already available. M+W Group has secured the property and project rights for 20 years.
Around 72,500 multichrystaline PV modules are being used that are assembled across a 50 hectare area. Numerous grid-connected inverters will ensure that the direct current produced by the modules is converted into grid-connected alternating current.
The company expects the plant to be connected to the national grid by the end of 2010.
