We erected our first solar park in 2008 in Spain. Since then, our solar parks have grown to multi MW projects, with the largest one in Kassø, Denmark reaching 304 MW. Solar energy continues to be one of the most profitable energy solutions,
When installed together, solar PV and heat pump saved households in Germany, Spain, and Italy between 62% -84% on annual energy bills in 2022. Europeans with solar PV + heat pumps can expect to continue to save up to 76% on monthly bills in the years to come. New modelling shows that solar PV and heat pumps are compatible year-round.
The falling cost of energy storage is adding another option for such hybrid systems. One of the first facilities comprised of solar photovoltaic (PV) with attached battery storage has been deployed alongside the existing fuel oil engine by Wärtsilä Energy at the Fekola gold mine in southwest Mali.
