Wiegand-Glas has installed a photovoltaic (PV) system at its site in Großbreitenbach, Germany.
Over 18,000 solar modules were installed on approximately 42,000 m² of the roofs of the glass manufacturer’s warehouses in Großbreitenbach.
The installed capacity is 7,933 kWp.
The PV system will go into operation this spring and generate around 7 GWh of green electricity per year.
Annually, this will cover around 7.5% of the electricity demand at the site.
This is equivalent to the electricity requirements of approximately 2,000 three-person households.
By installing the PV system, Wiegand-Glas hopes to reduce emissions, ensure long-term competitiveness, and actively drive energy transition.
