Starts construction of floating solar plant in 阿尔巴尼亚

The pilot has an estimated total investment of EUR 2 million and will be placed at the Banja reservoir, where 十大最好的网赌平台 is operating its 72 MW Banja hydropower plant.

“Now that all regulatory approvals are in place, we have issued a notice to proceed to Ocean Sun for implementing the first phase of the project. We look forward to start construction by the end of June”, says Head Advisor IP 策略 and Asset Management in 十大最好的网赌平台, 汤姆·克里斯蒂安·拉森.

In this first phase, Ocean Sun will deliver a complete floating 0.5 MWp DC system based on their innovative design for floating solar technology. The floating power plant will be constructed in collaboration between Ocean Sun and 十大最好的网赌平台, and is expected to be finalised in Q4 2020.

Subject to the first unit performing in accordance with requirements, 十大最好的网赌平台 will proceed with the second phase of the project, which will add additional three floating 0.5 MWp units in 2021, bringing the total solar capacity on the Banja reservoir to 2 MWp.

Testing new technology for floating 太阳能发电 panels fits very well with 十大最好的网赌平台’s strategy to grow the company’s renewable energy generation from hydro, 风能和太阳能. If the technology is proven successful and the potential for cost-competitiveness can be achieved, a wider application of floating solar may take place also in other 十大最好的网赌平台 locations.

“Ocean Sun is very pleased to start construction for 十大最好的网赌平台. The project represents the first sizable installation in the south of Europe and a milestone in our pursuit of clean and affordable energy from floating 太阳能发电 globally”, says CEO of Ocean Sun, Børge Bjørneklett.
