Tie up is for the supply of modules required for 2.45 MW grid-connected solar park constructed and commissioned in Germany

Kolkata-based Vikram Solar has tied up with Germany-based GermanPV for supplying solar modules for grid-connected solar park in the European nation.

"Vikram Solar has entered into a tie up with GermanPV, an energy solution company based out of Germany, for the supply of modules required for 2.45 megawatt (MW) grid-connected solar park constructed and commissioned in Germany.

The solar park is located at Osterburg in the district of Stendal, in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany.

The complete set of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules has been supplied by Vikram Solar for this solar park which will generate enough power to sustain the demand of 1,000 households, the statement said.

The project will result in carbon dioxide savings of 1.7 ton per year approximately.

"The decision to work with Vikram Solar for this park was clear for us. Vikram has been a reliable and trustworthy partner from the first point of contact to the final construction of the park. The direct line to decision makers in Europe as well as in India has helped to realise this project on a very tight construction schedule," Tobias Sommer, Director Procurement, GermanPV, said.

"We are proud and thankful to have the chance to work with the Management of GermanPV, a team with more than 10 years of experience in the German PV sector. This park marks a milestone in the long-term partnership of the two companies and in Vikram's presence in the European PV market," Davide Marro, Head of Sales - Europe, Vikram Solar, said.
