Day4 delivers PV power plant
Day4 Energy, a supplier of solar-power systems, has delivered a turnkey 2.4MW roof-mounted photovoltaic (PV) power plant to Günther Heiss Solar in Germany.
The company was responsible for the design, engineering and construction of the PV power plant with one of its German partners.
The energy produced at the plant, which includes 12,600 48MC Day4 solar modules, will be sold to the local grid provider under the German feed-in-tariff (FIT) law (EEG).
Günther Heiss Solar, located in Emmingen, cultivates ginseng plants that prefer shading to sunlight for optimal growth and therefore require extensive roofs that can also be used to house solar-power generation systems.
Earlier this month, Canada-based Day4 Energy announced that it was also providing 5.1MW - or 23,000 of its modules - to Ontario’s Hybridyne Power Systems Canada, a 47.5 per cent-owned affiliate of Atlantic Wind and Solar Limited (AWSL), which specialises in the design, construction and management of utility-scale renewable-energy parks.
The 5.1MW suite of projects consists of the 2.0MW Newcastle Solar Energy Park, which was recently announced by AWSL, along with 3.1MW of rooftop arrays for the Toronto area.
