German lessor Hannover Leasing is financing the construction of three additional photovoltaic (PV) plants in Apulia, southern Italy – following the financing of six power plants which have been in operation in the same area since end of 2009.
The combined capacity of the nine photovoltaic facilities will be 8.5 MW. Hannover Leasing MD Andreas Ahlmann said that the investment will offer “attractive remuneration” for the company’s investors.
Apulia is leading Italy’s efforts to increase the number of photovoltaic plants across the country – in line with regional authorities’ plans to increase renewable energy production. SunEdison Italia, part of US solar electricity company SunEdison, will provide maintenance for the plants.
