SolarWorld Americas will supply 17.5MW
of solar power modules for a plant in the
Mojave Desert, west of Las Vegas.
The plant will use over 51,000 340W
modules produced by SolarWorld in
Hillsboro, Oregon, with installation by
SolarWorld’s longstanding partner,
Bombard Renewable Energy. The project
is expected to be completed by the end
of this summer.
The Mojave Desert plant is the latest
project by SolarWorld worldwide. In
January 2016, the company secured the
order for a 10.5MWplant inOregon, and is
also building a 5MW plant in Great Britain
and a 2MW solar park in the Netherlands.
SolarWorldalready recordeda significant
increase in shipments for large-scale
solar power projects in 2015, with a
year-on-year increase of 50 percent. The
rise in the number of repowering projects
has also contributed to the increasing
share of large-scale projects. Besides
Germany, the majority of the plants are
located in France, Great Britain and
the US. The MENA region will also play a
significant role for large-scale projects in
the future.
