Munich based BayWa r.e. was commissioned to construct the company’s fifth freestanding PV plant in the UK this month – situated near Bodmin, in Cornwall, covering an area of just under 10 hectares.

Average annual power generation is around 5.13 millionkWh, saving approximately 3,400 tonnes of CO2 per year. BayWa r.e. installed 18,810 polycrystalline modules and 150 string inverters for the plant.
