SUCCESS STORY

POGGIORSINI POWER PLANTPoggiorsini (BA), Italy

PROFITABLE AND SUSTAINABLE SOLAR ENERGYPoggiorsini town is located 70 km far from Bari province and its territory is mainly used for agricul-

ture. Thanks to a very favorable sun irradiation, this PV plant turned out to be a very sustainable and

profitable operation from an economical point of view. The plant was built by SAEM Company which

belongs to Kerself Group, one of the most important System Integrators with more than ten years

experience in PV sector and a total installed capacity of 60 MW. The investor says that the 3 MWp of

solar panels installed produce about 4,000,000 kW/h per year, avoiding the emission of 2,330 tons

of CO2 every year. Just to give some concrete figures, the electricity produced through this power

plant can satisfy the needs of around 1,500 families composed of 4 people. ACEA RSE S.p.A. decided

to install Yingli Solar modules because of the good results that Yingli has been achieving in other

European countries and also on the basis of the excellent price/performance rate, which is extremely

important in order to get the best possible earnings on the capital invested.

One of the biggest solar power plants in the region

Very efficient installation process, in just four months

100% of the solar energy produced gets into the local electrical grid

High efficiency of the solar power plant, thanks to the cooperation with leading companies in PV sector

The constant monitoring system showed that the actual power production is much bigger compared to the initial estimations

Yingli modules have an outstanding price/performance rate and a higher output power than expected

THE MOST IMPORTANT BENEFITS OF THE SYSTEM

From the beginning, we immediately understood the potentiality of solar energy and

now the first results in terms of production are confirming that we were right. The task of

building this power plant was assigned to SAEM of Kerself Group, a leading company in

PV sector. This fact proves our wish to cooperate only with world class Companies.
