The first construction phase, which has already been completed, is set to be expanded by 60.2MW, increasing the total output of the power plant to 84.5MW.
Hans-Peter Piorr of the university said this unique scientific concomitant research will result in a whole host of new insights.
"Research efforts shall focus on how the construction of large-scale photovoltaic open field systems impact the environment and what can be done to improve the design of these systems, Piorr said.
