Rolls-Royce focuses on sustainable power generation with climate protection program
The new solar park takes Rolls-Royce another step closer to its goal of achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions from our operations and facilities as Power Systems has signed a power purchase agreement with the operators for an initial period of ten years. 'With our Net Zero at Power Systems program, we are pursuing strict climate protection targets,' explained Dr
The company's own sustainable power generation is a key element in saving greenhouse gas emissions. 'In order to increase the feed-in of electricity from renewable sources into the grid near our plants, we are working even more closely with local partners. We are pleased to have found an experienced and competent cooperation partner in solarcomplex and to open the new solar park together today,' explained Preiss.
solarcomplex has already realized solar power plants with a total output of 50 megawatts
The civic enterprise solarcomplex has set itself the goal of converting regional energy supply largely to renewable energies by 2030. Solar power plants with a total output of over 50 megawatts have already been realized as roof-mounted and ground-mounted systems, as well as regenerative heating networks in 18 communities. 'Throughout Germany, the expansion of renewable power generation must be accelerated, and Baden-Wurttemberg has a particularly high need to catch up. This can only succeed if more and larger projects are also implemented for ground-mounted solar parks. Our Berghof solar park shows how it can be done,' said solarcomplex CEO
