Germany-based RWE has commissioned a new 20 MWp (15.7 MW (AC) solar plant in Bedburg, North Rhine-Westphalia, built on recultivated land near the A 44 motorway. The plant, featuring over 36,600 solar modules, generates enough electricity to power about 5,400 German households annually. This is RWE’s seventh solar project in the Rhenish lignite area, where it continues to expand its renewable energy portfolio. RWE is also trialing Agri-PV systems immediately adjacent to the Bedburg plant, integrating agriculture with solar power generation.
