About a 30 minute drive NE of Berlin, you will come to the town of Werneuchen (maybe 8,000 residents total). This week, it became known for something....being the largest solar 'farm' in Germany (200 hectares, roughly 500 acres).
RBB did a decent report on the town and this achievement...worth reading.
Total number of solar panels? Well...465,000. Yeah....enough to power a town of roughly 50,000 homes.
Turning the on-button? It'll happen at the very end of 2020, and start collecting power.
No environmental fuss over the project? Apparently....not. Most of the wind-generator projects are all being scrutinized and challenged in court....the solar projects, less so.
