Phoenix Solar AG builds Germany´s largest photovoltaic power plant on a
carport
- Photovoltaic power plant with one peak megawatt output
- Value added through twofold benefit of photovoltaics
Sulzemoos, 15 December 2009 / Phoenix Solar AG, a leading international
photovoltaic system integrator listed on the TecDAX, has been building
Germany´s largest photovoltaic power plant on a carport in Berlin over the
last weeks. Moreover, this is currently Berlin´s largest photovoltaic power
plant. The carport, the roof of which is covered with solar modules, is
located on property belonging to Police Department 2 in Berlin Spandau and
gives shelter to more than 500 vehicles against sun and rain. The solar
power plant with a peak output of 998 kilowatts generates environmentally
compatible electricity for around 250 four-person households.
The Phoenix Solar AG construction team installed around 3,700 crystalline
solar modules arrayed in eight double rows at an angle of 18 degrees on the
carport which is situated on a parking lot of 7,200 square metres. The
electrical connection is ensured through mini central inverters and a
transformer as well as a transfer station with a switching system connected
to the 10 kV medium voltage grid operated by Vattenfall, the local energy
utility company. The power plant is due to be connected to the grid before
Christmas.
´We are very pleased to have been awarded the contract for this flagship
project. We view photovoltaic systems on carports as an important future
market segment. This is where we can apply the multi-functionality of
photovoltaics and deliver value added to the customer which goes beyond the
pure generating of electricity´, commented Ulrich Reidenbach, Chief Sales
Officer of Phoenix Solar AG.
Bumiller Neue Energien GmbH, a company headquartered in Berlin, was
responsible for the development and coordination of the carport project.
The company concentrates on the conception and realisation of solar
projects. ´This project has enabled us to demonstrate that inner-city
planning can reach new dimensions through creativity and open-mindedness´,
said Henrik Bumiller, Managing Director of Bumiller Neue Energien GmbH.
Project planning was carried out by MW Solar Consulting GmbH, and the
financing and financial planning by MW Beratung who advised the investors
of the solar power plant. ´What our customers are looking for in times of
financial unrest is a secure investment which makes sense - here the
combination of investing in photovoltaics and personal financial planning
is an ideal solution which provides an attractive return´, commented Markus
Wahle, owner of MW Beratung.
The property of the Police Academy in Spandau is managed by BIM Berliner
Immobilienmanagement GmbH (BIM). As the contractual partner of MW Solar
Consulting GmbH it represents the State of Berlin which is the owner. ´The
solar power plant saves 750 t CO2 a year and is another important step in
achieving our climate protection goal of lowering the CO2 emission of
buildings managed by BIM by 21 percent by 2015´, stated BIM Managing
Director Sven Lemiss.
