• 45,000 modules for the Solarpark Roitzsch in the district of Anhalt-Bitterfeld
• Construction to begin in October, completion expected by the end of 2011
• Partners improve their position in the area of PV projects, joint building of additional solar parks planned
Mainz/Hamburg/Sandersdorf-Brehna, November 4, 2011 – In October and November, 2011, SCHOTT Solar AG will be supplying 45,000 solar modules with a total output of 10.5 MW peak for a new Capital Stage AG project. Capital Stage is currently developing, financing and building the Solarpark Roitzsch in the district of Anhalt-Bitterfeld. In total, a park with an output in the area of around 13 MW is planned. Hatob GmbH is responsible for the construction work as the general contractor.
The solar power plant is expected to connect with the grid already by the end of the year and then generate approximately 12.8 million kilowatt hours of power in an environmentally friendly manner and without any CO2 emissions. The companies involved in this project will thus be underscoring their prominent position in the PV project business once again.
Solarpark Roitzsch will receive remuneration of approx. 22 euro cents for each kilowatt hour of power it generates for 20 years, as called for by the EEG (Renewable Energy Sources Act). To make sure the park generates the highest possible power yields for this entire period and many years beyond, Capital Stage, the company responsible for this project, elected to use high-performance modules from SCHOTT Solar. The German PV manufacturer already has more than 50 years of experience and is known for its high-quality, long-lasting products. Each of the 45,000 of these polycrystalline modules that SCHOTT Solar will be delivering for the project has an output of 230 Watts peak.
Successful collaboration to be continued
