World record 1 GW PV installed

By Barbara Vergetis Lundin

Belectric is being called "the first company in the world" to install more than 1 GW of photovoltaic (PV) power with the commissioning of multiple PV systems earlier this week. The capacity compares to the system output of a large conventional power plant.

Belectric's focus has been on making solar power generation competitive with fossil fuels. The development of grid-stabilizing solar power plants enables the intelligent integration of renewable energy sources in existing electricity networks.

Belectric has also completed the grid connection of what it is calling "the world's largest" CIS thin-film solar power plant. In partnership with Solar Frontier, the project was deployed in Bochow, Brandenburg, Germany.
