- Agreement of rooftop usage with a total area of more than 400,000 sqm
- The performance potential of Wiesenhof’s rooftops is about 19 MWp
Hamburg, December 08, 2008 – Wiesenhof, a PHW Group company, and COLEXON
have signed a memorandum of understanding for the promotion of roof areas.
In Germany, this is currently the largest roof area portfolio, which will
be used for photovoltaic (PV) purposes. The objective of the cooperation
between Germany’s number one poultry brand and the leading system
integrator of large rooftop PV power plants is, to rent the roof areas to
investors for solar power plants. Due to this memorandum COLEXON is able to
use 400,000 sqm of roof areas for PV installations. Wiesenhof’s roof areas
have a potential of nearly 19 MWp. Annually this would provide electricity
for approx. 4,000 households and could save more than 16,500 tons of carbon
dioxide emissions. In case of a successful commercialization of the roof
areas until the end of 2009, both parties have shown great interest to
continue and internationally extend the cooperation.
