Our present and our future
Enefit Green entered the solar electricity market in 2017. We built a solar power plant on the roof of Estonia Dairy Farm in Järva County, where we installed 644 solar panels.
Over the years, we have vigorously expanded our solar energy production. The parks are located in 38 locations. More than 100 000 solar panels in total are located in our solar parks.
The parks are located in 38 locations.
Solar panels should be installed at an angle of about 35-40 degrees to the ground, as this ensures maximum annual productivity in our region.
Due to high solar radiation and low temperatures, solar parks achieve the highest instantaneous production in March-April.
In Estonia, solar parks usually generate the most electricity in May, as the days are quite long and the temperature is lower than in June-July. Lower temperatures help increase efficiency.
It is also possible to generate energy in cloudy weather, because solar radiation reaches the solar panels through the clouds as well.
In June 2019, we entered the Polish renewable energy market where we expect the largest growth for the development of solar energy in the coming years.
Our solar parks in Poland generate about 20 GWh of solar energy per year, being sufficient for almost 7000 homes with average consumption for a year.
Read more about the developmentsRenewable energy production has become by far our most profitable field of activity - our wind farm and solar park play a significant role in this. We have prepared an exciting tour - go on a ride on the wind turbine nacelle or take a walk at the solar park, the annual electricity output of which is equivalent to the average annual consumption of 300 Estonian homes.
