On Usedom, Germany’s easternmost island on the Baltic Sea coast, installation work is under way on what is SunEnergy’s largest roof-mounted PV installation so far. On the premises of the Gut Thurbruch GmbH, a former GDR co-operative which nowadays raises pigs, cattle and sheep by ecological standards, 2.6 MWp nominal power are installed on 12 roofs with a total area extending 26,000 square metres.
Prior to mounting the modules the roofs had to undergo renovation work in order to meet the static demands of a PV installation. A specifically adapted sub-construction was developed by SunEnergy Europe in order to cut down on material need and costs.
"Despite the extra time that was needed to anchor the sub-construction on the cement stud frame of the roofs we will have the installation ready for operation by June 30^th, just as we originally planned", Construction Site Manager Christian Rolle states.
The installation work’s progress is documented by a film team from energy tv 24. Click below to see the PV power plant growing in one of the sunniest spots in Germany (Trailer in German language.
