Open-space solar parks

Open-space solar parks offer an excellent opportunity to generate renewable energy from the sun and thus contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

The clear focus here is on areas that are already sealed, conversion areas, and only to a very limited extent on low-quality agricultural land. Open-space solar parks offer great potential without increasing pressure on agricultural land, particularly on suitable areas along highways and railways that cannot be used for agricultural or other purposes.

The construction of solar parks along highways and railways can help to protect nature and the landscape in the region while ensuring a sustainable energy supply.

Taking into account the German government's expansion targets, it can be seen that the installed capacity in the solar sector must almost triple (2021 approx. 59 GW, target for 2030: 215 GW) if the target of covering 80% of demand from renewable energies by 2030 and achieving climate-neutral electricity production by 2035 is to be met.

ME Müritzer Energie AG, a subsidiary of Aleia Holding AG, wants to make an important contribution to the energy transition and seize the opportunity it presents. The company has therefore successfully begun to develop and plan open-space solar parks, particularly in its home region of the Mecklenburg Lake District, and will rapidly expand this business area.
