The Strasskirchen power plant was built by the Q CELLS system specialists of the former Q-Cells SE. This facility was connected to the grid in December 2009 and generates around 53 MWp of green electricity. Hanwha Q CELLS needed only five months to finish the construction of this facility. The nature welcomes such a short construction time since it enables an even faster renaturation – as recent studies on the biodiversity of solar parks prove.

Solar power plant Brandenburg-Briest, Germany 91 MWp
In December 2011, the former military airport Briest turned into one of the world‘s largest power plants for solar energy. On an area of 280 soccer fields, the solar power plant Briest-Brandenburg provides a capacity of 91 MWp which generates power for more than 11,500 households.
To achieve this, more than 383,000 crystalline modules from Q CELLS were mounted and installed in a record time of only eight weeks. The power plant is a joint project between the former Q-Cells SE and the investors of the Luxcara GmbH as well as the MCG Group.

Alexandra von Bernstorff, Managing Director, LUXCARA GmbH
„As asset managers we place a great deal of value on high-quality parks from experienced photovoltaic companies such as Hanwha Q CELLS; the product performance of which we can count on to provide the highest degree of security for the next 20 years.”
