PEKING (dpa-AFX) - JA Solar Holdings Co. Ltd. (JASO) reached an agreement with Solarhybrid AG, a Germany-based project developer and general contractor for turn-key utility-scale solar power projects, to supply 19 MW of solar modules to Solarhybrid's Allstedt I solar power plant in Halle, Germany. JA Solar is the exclusive solar module supplier to the project.
Pursuant to the deal terms, JA Solar would supply Solarhybrid with about 19 MW of high-efficiency PV modules. Located on a former military airfield in Germany, the Allstedt I solar power plant is expected to generate 19,030,000 kWh of electricity annually and reduce CO2 emissions by 266,381 tons over a service period of 20 years. The power plant is slated to be connected to the grid and commence operation by the year end.
The company anticipates total module shipments to Solarhybrid to reach nearly 40 MW in 2011, including 19 MW of modules for the Allstedt I project.
