Statkraft has completed a 76 MWdc solar power in Tamil Nadu, set up under group captive mode for industrial consumption. It features 140,000 PV panels and spans 773,678 square meters of land.
The German Federal Cartel Office is currently reviewing the transaction. RWE confirmed the plan.
The German EPC player has hit the 1 GWp milestone of installed PV capacity in India with the delivery of a 250 MW solar plant for Fortum. Around 40% of the plant is equipped with high-performance bifacial modules.
The company has signed an agreement with Cleantech Solar for a PV project with a capacity of more than 100 MW. The project—to be delivered in three phases—is expected to be completed within this year.
Germany based Belectric Solar & Battery GmbH has been awarded a 250 MW (AC) solar project by Fortum—this time in Rajasthan.
Although the Wiki-Solar website ranking only provides a snapshot of PV project engineering, procurement and construction contracts outside of China, it is nevertheless a useful indicator of the changing global solar market landscape. Of the top 11 companies, four are based in India, three in Germany, and two in the United States. But last year’s largest contractor, U.S.-based First Solar, might lose its leading position this year, as it has largely discontinued its EPC activities.
The utility-scale PV project, which Belectric built for Fortum Solar India across five sites, is the largest amount of solar capacity that the German EPC services provider has commissioned in the country thus far.
The German EPC contractor is also building a 250 MW AC ground-mounted solar farm in Karnataka. Overall, with an already installed capacity of more than 370 MWp and other projects under implementation, it expects to cross 1 GW of installed capacity in India by the year end.
Germany-based Belectric Solar and Battery GmbH has been awarded a 250 MW AC solar PV project by Fortum Solar India Private Limited. It will be built in the state of Karnataka.
