The largest photovoltaic power plant in Walloon District of Belgium has been built recently. The largest photovoltaic power plant in Walloon District of Belgium has been opened. The project is located in Saint gisland, covering an area of 9 hectares, with a capacity of 6.4 megawatts developed by perpetum energy company.
It is reported that the project is supported by the land owner, gall é e company, and is financially supported by integral insurance company. 18720 photovoltaic panels with a capacity of 6.4mw are installed in the project, which is expected to supply annual consumption of 1860 households every year, and all electric energy generated in the project will be incorporated into the grid.
In June of last year, perpetum energy company also developed and built Krystal solar Park, the largest park in Belgium, with a power of 99.5mw, which is located in Rommel, Flemish Limburg Province, Belgium.
Belgium, as a member of the EU, is carrying out more renewable energy to achieve a cleaner energy structure in order to achieve the 2020 climate policy. It not only supports the construction of photovoltaic power stations, but also rapidly advances roof photovoltaic.
On March 4, 2020, engie Benelux announced the installation of 1132 MW rooftop power plant in lokeren aliplast plant in Belgium, with 3650 solar panels capable of providing 10% - 12% of the total energy supply. In addition to solar panels, two dual charging stations for electric vehicles are installed on site. The total power of the charging station is 44kw powered by solar panels. Engie Benelux said that the new roof device can reduce 462 tons of carbon dioxide per year, equivalent to the annual emissions of 231 diesel vehicles.
According to the latest renewable energy market forecast released by the International Energy Agency (IEA), Belgium will also be one of the primary battlefields of roof photovoltaic by 2024.
