Supply Contract Signed
Masdar PV signs supply contract with system integrator biomo solar
Masdar PV, a manufacturer of large-scale silicon-based thin-film solar modules, has signed a supply contract for 1 MWp with the system integrator biomo solar. The thin-film solar modules produced by Masdar PV will be used for a number of roof installations which biomo solar plans to complete in Germany before the end of the year.
The project involves Masdar PV's high-grade 1.4m² modules which carry the "Made in Germany" quality seal. These high-tech solar modules can be supplied in sizes up to 5.7 m² and offer an excellent cost-performance ratio, especially under the diffuse light conditions which often prevail in Germany with its overcast weather conditions. A further benefit is that Masdar PV modules are more than capable of delivering high energy yields even if they are not perfectly aligned to the sun.
"We are delighted to have acquired such a renowned manufacturer of thin-film solar modules as Masdar PV to act as our technological partner for our construction project in Germany. Alongside the technological advantages Masdar PV is able to provide, we were equally impressed by the focus on service the company is able to offer", explains biomo solar Managing Director Heinz-Dieter Steinmann. Masdar PV Managing Director Frank Wouters adds: "biomo solar has long since established itself as a leading player in the project planning of solar and biomass plants. We believe that Germany remains a lucrative market for thin-film solar modules, particularly with regard to roof installations which generate electricity to be used within the building itself. For this reason, we are extremely pleased that our modules will be used for further projects within our home market where they will be able to display their strengths"
