Company Information
Meldorf/Freiburg, Germany, 1/18/2010 - The
largest solar power plant in Schleswig-Holstein set up through 
community involvement will be inaugurated today in Nindorf (near 
Meldorf), Germany. The ground mounting "Nindorf-Farnewinkel solar 
farm" will provide clean solar power to approximately 1,000 
households in the region, with a peak capacity of 3.45 megawatts (MW)
on 200,000 m2 of land. The 15,000 modules were provided by 
Solar-Fabrik AG, with Aldra Solar as general contractor in charge of 
planning and installation. Completed at the end of last year, the 
plant will now generate 3.3 million kilowatt hours of solar power 
each year. Consequently, it will be possible to save more than 4,400 
metric tons of CO2 each year.
The Nindorf-Farnewinkel solar farm is a community initiative set up 
by the Nindorf town council, which commissioned Aldra Solar to 
implement the project. The project was planned, contracted, and 
installed entirely by this local company. 105 limited partners 
provided nearly EUR 10 million in financing for the project. Aldra, 
the town of Nindorf, and the local water works (in charge of managing
the solar farm) have all acquired shares, too.
Convinced by Good Working Experience with Solar-Fabrik The 15,000 
modules provided by Freiburg-based Solar-Fabrik are essential to the 
plant. Due to the fact that the reliability and durability of the 
components significantly determine the yields of the solar farm, 
German products have exclusively been chosen for all photovoltaic 
components. "Solar-Fabrik has been our main supplier of modules since
the beginning. We have chosen to use their high-quality products due 
to our previous good experience with the company," asserts Bernd 
Sönnichsen, Managing Director of Aldra Solar.
