Suppliers Suppliers wanting to work with an established, growing and ambitious solar developer, with a major pipeline of projects through to the 2020s. An international portfolio A selection of some of our projects spanning the globe Solarcentury has been active in Latin America since 2012, with a pipeline of major projects in Chile since 2015. In April 2017, we completed our largest Latin American project to date, 40MWp Doña Carmen ground mount. Solarcentury heeft in de afgelopen tien jaar een aantal dak- en grondinstallaties ontwikkeld in Duitsland. Zoals overal in een volwassen markt, wordt de toekomstige groei gedreven door de kosteneffectiviteit van de technologie, waarbij in Duitsland de zonne-energie op de schaal van nutsbedrijven al goedkoper is dan de marktprijs voor de groothandel. Hierdoor is zonne-energie financieel aantrekkelijk voor commerciële en industriële klanten. Our East Africa projects showcase our African experience, knowledge and expertise across a range of solar applications, including pioneering hybrid and off-grid systems. In 2018 Solarcentury won 57 megawatts (MW) of solar power capacity in the solar auction in France, marking the launch of its first development projects in the country. Solarcentury has many years’ experience in the solar market in France, on residential and commercial scale projects. The auction wins are a significant milestone for Solarcentury’s French team, who, after three years developing a strong pipeline in the market, will construct, operate and manage the three French plants. Solarcentury has developed a range of rooftop and ground-mount projects in Germany over the past decade. As elsewhere in mature solar markets, future growth will be driven by the cost effectiveness of the technology, with utility-scale solar in Germany already below the wholesale market price, which makes solar financially viable for a range of commercial and industrial clients. Solarcentury has long experience of the Spanish market dating back to 2007. Today Solarcentury Iberia has a strong development pipeline in place and is well placed to take advantage of the new Spanish renewable energy auctions. Solarcentury’s experience in Italy dates back to 2008. Over the years we have installed numerous commercial-scale solar roofs, a series of solar roofs for schools in Milan, and multiple solar farms. Mexico is an increasingly important market for Solarcentury. We established our Mexico office in 2014 and partnering with JinkoSolar, we won two large projects in the country’s 2016 renewable energy auction. In total we are developing over 200 MWp of projects won in the 2016 and 2017 auctions, with a very large further pipeline for deployment through to the 2020s. Solarcentury completed our first unsubsidised solar farm in Panama in 2016. Earlier this year, our regional hub business in Panama City was boosted by the acquisition of a 400 MWp pipeline from local investment partner ECOSolar. Solarcentury has been active in South Africa since 2013, originally focused on rooftop projects. More recently, developing ground-mounted projects, especially in the mining industry, is the focus of our pipeline. Solarcentury has had a team in The Netherlands since 2012 and has built up a project pipeline of nearly 300 MWp. Our track record includes building the country’s largest solar farm to date in 2015 and winning 46 MWp in the Netherlands auction in 2017. Solar is forecast to continue enjoying strong growth in The Netherlands and it is one of Solarcentury’s core markets. Solarcentury has been at the forefront of the UK solar sector since we were founded in London in 1998. We’ve won multiple project and product awards, including The Queen’s Award for Innovation. We were the first company to deploy more than 500 MWp in the UK, including world-leading installations such as Blackfriars solar bridge in London, and launched IKEA’s international solar homes business in 2015. In Western Africa, our partnerships with international companies allowed them to reduce energy costs and their climate impact, taking advantage of the significant benefits of solar.
