Phoenix Solar realising more ground-mounted PV-plants in Greece

Sulzemoos, Germany - Phoenix Solar E.P.E., the Greek subsidiary of Phoenix Solar AG, is realising more ground-mounted photovoltaic power plants in Greece.

The two solar parks have a peak power of 1.5 megawatts and 1.0 megawatt and are located in the regions of Lakonia and Etoloakarnania respectively on mainland Greece. Both solar parks have been under development for three years. Construction has already commenced, with completion planned before the end of the first quarter of 2013.

"We anticipate a market volume of around 500 megawatts of photovoltaic installations in Greece in 2013", stated Dr. Christos Protogeropoulos, General Manager of Phoenix Solar E.P.E. "In 2012, we installed more than 8 megawatts in ground-mounted power plants. Today we already have an order book of more than 7 megawatts for 2013, mainly for large grid-connected photovoltaic systems, which puts us in a good position for making 2013 another successful year for Phoenix Solar Greece."
