Bavaria Solarpark, is a 10 Megawatt (MW) photovoltaic power plant separated into 3 different locations in Germany. Solarpark Mühlhausen is 6.3 MW located in Mühlhausen, Germany. Solarpark Günching is 1.9 MW located in Günching, Germany. Solarpark Minihof is 1.9 MW located in Minihof, Germany. The Bavaria Solarpark constructed by SunPower consists of 57,600 Sharp solar panels on SunPower Trackers. The total plant occupies 25 hectares.

Gottelborn Solar Park is a photovoltaic power plant located in Göttelborn, Germany. The power plant was constructed by City Solar in two stages, stage 1 finished in August, 2004, and stage 2 finished in November 2007.

Gottleborn Solar Park known as Solarpark Zeche Göttelborn. This photovoltaic power plant has capacity of 8.4MW

The first stage of the plants construction of 23,500 Photowatt International solar modules estimated at around 14% efficiency, and outputting 4 MWp. The first stage of the station occupied 50,000 m² The second stage made the total of modules to 50,000.

The Pocking Solar Park is a 10 megawatt (MWp) photovoltaic solar power plant. Construction and assembly of the power plant started in August 2005 and was completed in March 2006. On the former military training area in the Lower-Bavarian town of Pocking, sheep are now grazing under and around the 57,912 photovoltaic modules.

The Rothenburg Solar Park is a photovoltaic power plant in Rothenburg, Oberlausitz in Germany. It has a capacity of 20 MWp. The solar park is equipped with 273,240 First Solar modules, and 11 Siemens central inverters. The project was commissioned in 2009.

Gehrlicher Solar AG officially inaugurated the solar park at Rothenburg Airport this week-end in the presence of Heike Böhm, Mayor of Rothenburg and Bernd Lange, District Administrator of Görlitz.

The Rothenburg photovoltaic solar park consists of three partial areas with a total of about 70 hectares. That amounts to about the size of almost 100 soccer fields. 273,240 thin-film modules from First Solar, turn sunlight into energy, which is then transformed from AC to DC current by eleven Siemens central inverters and fed into the power grid.

A total of about ten million single parts and approximately 600 kilometers of cable were used in the construction. The Rothenburg photovoltaic solar park has an output of 20.5 MWp.

After the ceremony, and within the framework of an open house event, the citizens of the region had the opportunity to visit the Rothenburg photovoltaic solar park. This solar power plant has a peak output of 20.5 megawatts and is one of the largest of its kind in Saxony.

Gehrlicher, a company specialized in projecting photovoltaic roof-mounted and free-field installations up to a megawatt range, constructed this solar power plant on the site of a former military airport near Rothenburg/Oberlausitz. This installation is exemplary because it was constructed on a fallow area, which was orginally used for military purposes.

District Admnistrator Bernd Lange highlighted in his speech the importance of solar energy for the municipal district of Görlitz. "In view of the increasing consume of energy and rising energy prices, in addition to fossile energy sources, we should also give alternative energy sources a chance. Thanks to the good solar radiation we have in the municipal district of Görlitz, we are able to use photovoltaics sensibly as part of the energy mix.

The solar power plant at Rothenburg Airport, with its 20.5 MWp, is one of the largest Gehrlicher has constructed until now.

Stadtwerke München (the public utilities of the city of Munich) have a 40% participation in the solar park as part of their "Renewable Energies Expansion Offensive". Gehrlicher Solar holds 34.6 percent of the shares, a private investor holds a further 25.4 percent.

The Pocking Solar Park is a 10 megawatt (MWp) solar power plant. Construction and assembly of the photovoltaic power plant started in August 2005 and was completed in March 2006. On the former military training area in the Lower-Bavarian town of Pocking, sheep are now grazing under and around the 57,912 photovoltaic modules.

Waldpolenz Solar Park, which is the world’s largest thin-film photovoltaic (PV) power system, was built by German developer and operator Juwi at a former military air base to the east of Leipzig in Germany. The solar power plant is a 40 MW solar power system using state-of-the-art thin film technology, and was fully operational by the end of 2008. 550,000 First Solar thin-film modules from cadmium telluride (CdTe) are being used, which supply about 40,000 MWh of electricity per year.

The installation is located in the Muldentalkreis district in the state of Saxony in eastern Germany, built on half of the location’s 220 hectares in the townships of Brandis and Bennewitz. The investment costs for the Waldpolenz solar park amount to some 130 million euro.

Waldpolenz Solar Park Power plants such at this make renewable energy more affordable for consumers. It is projected that electricity from this installation will be 20 - 40% cheaper than it is at present in Germany.

The Finsterwalde Solar Park is a photovoltaic power station in Finsterwalde, Germany. It has a capacity of 42 MW. The Finsterwalde Solar Park project is developed by Q-Cells International and LDK Solar and it is equipped with Q-Cells modules and LDK Solar wafers. The project was commissioned in 2009.

The Köthen Solar Park is a photovoltaic power station in Köthen, Germany. Köthen Solar Park has a capacity of 45 MWp and an annual output of 42 GWh. The solar park is developed built by RGE Energy.

The photovoltaic power station project is built on a former military airfield in Köthen on 116 hectares (290 acres). The project is the largest solar power plant in Saxony-Anhalt and the world's largest with string inverters. The project is equipped 205.000 crystalline photovoltaic modules of BP Solar. The total investment in the project was around €133 millions. The solar park was connected to the grid in 2009.

The Lieberose Photovoltaic Energy Park is a 53 megawatt (MW) solar photovoltaic power plant in Lieberose, Brandenburg, Germany. The solar park with 700,000 solar panels which went fully on line in October 2009, is the world's third-largest, and will supply electricity for 15,000 households a year while reducing the use of pollution-generating fossil fuels. The Lieberose Solar Park cost $238-million and is operated by the Juwi Group, which has a 20-year contract on the land.

Lieberose Solar Power Plant: an ecological and economic lighthouse project for the protection of climate and nature

The photovoltaic power plant on the former exercise terrain for troops, Lieberose, to the north of Cottbus (Brandenburg) is the largest solar power plant in Germany since 20 August 2009. With the joint assembly of the 560 000 solar modules the Federal Minister Wolfgang Tiefensee, commissioned by the Federal Government for the new Federal states, as well as the Minister-President of Brandenburg Matthias Platzeck made this plant to be the largest photovoltaic park in Germany. In Turnow-Preilack, the juwi Group – project developers for regenerative power plants – together with First Solar – manufacturers of advanced thin-layer modules – are currently realising a photovoltaic power plant with an output of 53 MW on an area of 162 ha that is to be fully connected to the grid by the end of this year. Solarserver hereby presents the second largest photovoltaic plant worldwide and Germany’s No. 1 as Solar System of the Month October 2009.

The Strasskirchen Solar Park is the second largest photovoltaic power station in the world, with an installed capacity of 54 MW. The facility is located in Straßkirchen, Germany.

Solar cells manufacturer Q-Cells SE (XETRA:QCE) declared on Friday that it has established a joint venture with MEMC Electronic Materials Inc (NYSE:WFR) to build large solar parks in which each partner will have a 50% share.

The first project will be a facility in Strasskirchen, Bavaria and Q-Cells International, a 100%-owned subsidiary of Q-Cells SE, has been commissioned to construct the facility.

German-based Q-Cells SE and MEMC, a US manufacturer of silicon wafers, have agreed to each invest up to around EUR72m in the joint venture in order to cover the bridging finance during the construction phase.

MEMC will supply silicon wafers for the joint venture and Q-Cells will turn them into solar cells.

The Strasskirchen solar park will have a total capacity of around 54 MW and will be the largest ground-mounted PV system in Germany to be operated using crystalline solar cell technology, the companies claim. After completion the project is planned to be sold to an external investor.
