(CercleFinance.com) – Spie announced on Tuesday that it had connected the German solar park in Rimlingen, located not far from the French border, to the German medium-voltage network, thereby helping to reduce the country’s carbon emissions.
The project, operated by renewable energy specialist Bürgerenergiegenossenschaft Hochwald, is equipped with around 8,500 photovoltaic modules.
It is thus supposed to produce more than four million kilowatt hours of electricity per year, equivalent to the consumption of around 1,300 households.
In a press release, Spie explains that it has transformed this installation into an intelligent local network station, capable of stabilizing and regulating the voltage in the network and facilitating the detection of faults.
“This represents an important step in preventing failures and increasing efficiency,” explains the French engineering group.
Since the completion of the works in August last year, the park has already produced almost three million kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity, avoiding the emission of more than 1,200 tonnes of CO2.
