The project will employ the Nanosolar Utility Panel in combination with systems technology and services from Beck Energy. The initial size of the plant is 1MW, an amount sufficient to power approximately 400 homes.
The Nanosolar Utility Panel is Nanosolar’s first product as part of its PowerSheet product line and the company’s solution for building solar power plants on free fields at the outskirts of towns and cities.
Martin Roscheisen, CEO of Nanosolar, said: This is the first time that a solar electricity cell and panel has been designed entirely and specifically for utility-scale power generation. It will set the standard for green power generation at utility scale.
Bernhard Beck, CEO of Beck Energy, said: The unique design and system economics of the Nanosolar Utility Panel are instrumental in enabling us to drive the cost efficiency of solar electricity systems. Every town and city should have its own solar farm in the future.
