The project is the largest of its kind for Satcon in Germany and marks a significant step in Satcon's continued growth in the European Utility-Scale solar market.
"The Tauberlandpark project is one of Germany's largest Utility-Scale solar power installations," said Andreas Schneider, Chief Executive Officer of relatio Holding. "A project of this scale demands that we partner with an industry leader who brings both the high quality technology and experience that will deliver the highest levels of performance and reliability to our customers. We have selected Satcon due to the proven success of their PowerGate Plus solar PV inverters in many of the world's largest and most complex large-scale solar power plants."
The Tauberlandpark Ernsthof West project utilizes Satcon's PowerGate Plus 500 kilowatt inverters, the world's most widely-deployed, large scale solar PV inverter with over 1.5 gigawatts sold since its introduction in 2005. All of Satcon's solutions include the most advanced, Utility-Ready features to enable simplified grid interconnection and can be easily integrated into utility SCADA systems through standardized communication interfaces.
"We are excited to be working with one of Germany's leaders in large scale solar development," said Steve Rhoades, Satcon's President and Chief Executive Officer. "The Tauberlandpark PV project demonstrates the significant growth in Utility-Scale installations in Germany. We are pleased to partner with relatio on this important advancement of Utility-Scale solar power in Germany, and look forward to working closely with them in the future."
