Conergy has expanded it's presence in Thailand by confirming it's New 31.5 MW Order from Thai Solar
Energy Company Limited (TSE) subsidiary Siam Solar Energy 1 Co., Ltd.
Conergy (link) has also constructed two power plants for SSE with a total installed capacity of
21 megawatts. Both plants are scheduled to be connected to the grid in
the first quarter of 2013. Three additional solar parks with an
installed capacity of 10.5 megawatts each are now to follow.
“We have made many important decisions already last year to strengthen
our international project business and to significantly expand it in the
solar growth markets. With this large-scale project in Thailand we let
action follow our decisions,” said Conergy CEO Dr. Philip Comberg. "For
the future, we intend to work on large-scale projects specifically and
long-term with financial investors and strategic industrial customers
who want to expand their portfolio like SSE with independent energy
power plants. In addition to the growing Asian markets such as Thailand,
we are focusing our efforts on the American solar market."
The three new power plants are located in the provinces of Suphanburi
and Kanchanaburi in western Thailand, some 130 kilometres from Bangkok.
Conergy will act as the EPC as well as supply the components for these three large-scale solar plants, which will cover around 790,000
square metres in total. For the construction work on the ground, Conergy
is collaborating with its long-standing local partners Annex
Power (link) and Ensys.
