RWE has started the commercial operation of the 14.4 MWp RWE indeland Solarpark project in Inden Mine, Düren, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
The utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) project with integrated battery storage uses 26,500 modules to generate green electricity for over 3,500 residences.
RWE has installed bifacial modules which are photosensitive on both sides and allow RWE to use both direct sunshine and ground-reflected light. The 9.6 MWh battery storage system buffers generation and grid with a two-hour charging and supply cycle.
