Solar park in Djursland

 

The new solar park will be able to produce 14 million kWh annually, equivalent to the electricity consumption of more than 3,100 Danish households. The solar park is expected to be ready by the end of the year.

At Genan, we have high energy consumption, and it is crucial for us that this is covered by renewable energy to achieve our ambitious climate goals, ” says Christian Kirkegaard Madsen, Group CFO at Genan, and continues, “We are pleased that we can now help realise this PPA project in collaboration with 24 other climate-ambitious companies and the electricity supplier, Reel. It has proven that the green transition is not always straightforward when it comes to government approvals, so it is a great victory to get this project in place.

Solar Park with a Focus on Biodiversity

The solar park in Djursland is designed with respect for both the climate and local biodiversity. About 40,000 square meters of the area will be left free of solar panels to promote the growth of wild plants and provide habitats for bats. Additionally, fruit trees will be planted under the transformer lines, and wildflowers will be sown around the solar panels to strengthen the local flora.

Genan’s commitment to the solar project demonstrates the company’s continued focus on sustainable solutions and green transition, both in terms of energy consumption and collaboration with the local community.
