Austria's XXL Solar Park Construction Success Story

This document is a success story detailing the construction of a large-scale photovoltaic project in Ratten, Austria, executed by the construction group STRABAG. The project aims to contribute to Austria's ambitious renewable energy targets, which include balancing electricity production with consumption by 2030. The solar park, covering 14 hectares at an elevation of 1,200 meters, is designed as a dual-use Agri-PV system, providing both electricity generation and grazing land for sheep. The park has a power output of 15 MW and utilizes around 26,000 solar modules along with 42 inverters. The document emphasizes the importance of quality in the installation process, highlighting the use of Original MC4-Evo 2 photovoltaic connectors from Stäubli, which ensure safe and efficient energy transmission. The project is expected to save approximately 6,200 tons of CO2 emissions annually, thereby supporting Austria's energy transition efforts.
