Erlasee Solar Park

Erlasee Solar Park

The Erlasee Solar Park, also sometimes called the Gut Erlasee Solar Park, is located in one of the sunniest regions of Germany. On the former wine-producing Erlasee estate near Arnstein in Bavaria, in southern Germany, SOLON has constructed what is currently the largest tracking photovoltaic solar power station in the world with an output of 12 MW. Just under 1,500 "SOLON-Movers" tracker mounted arrays convert sunlight into environmentally friendly power, generating as much as the average consumption of the nearby town of Arnstein.

The plant cost £35 million and covers 77 hectares of land. [ [http://www.rics.org/Builtenvironment/Engineering/solar_plant050906.html World's largest solar power plant becomes operational] ]
