An extensive area spanning 10 hectares – roughly the size of 19 football pitches – is being used to create a sustainable energy source.

The aim of the €8 million solar project is to generate sustainable energy on a large scale.
Choosing the right solar mounting systems played a key role in this. KÖNIG has made a significant contribution to this project by providing high-quality solar mounting systems: Around 20,000 modules and 271 tables, weighing a total of 320 tonnes of steel, will transform an idyllic meadow landscape into a powerful energy supplier that will meet the electricity needs of around 3,500 families.

This solar project is an excellent example of the regional energy transition. As well as providing clean electricity, the extensification of the meadows will provide a valuable habitat for insects and birds, and sheep grazing will be used to maintain the area.

Through the “Oberes Mühlbachtal” energy co-operative, the local authorities, associated municipalities and citizens are involved in the construction and subsequent revenue.
