20 ha PV for Kelheim terminal
BLG Logistics has launched the construction of a photovoltaic plant at its vehicle terminal in Kelheim.
Together with project developer Solea, the company will install 53,000 solar modules on 20 ha of parking area, aiming to generate over 23 MW of renewable power. The site will feature 10,000 covered spaces, protecting vehicles from the weather while producing green electricity, as Blg reported.
