The Spanish Mondragon Meeting develops a tailor-made turnkey line for Brite Solara Greek manufacturer of PV modules, will make semi-transparent PV panels for agricultural applications.
The facility, billed as the first agrivoltaic solar PV production line in Greece, is expected to be fully operational by the end of this year.
The production line is tailor-made for semi-transparent PV modules using silicon solar cells. It is designed to accommodate various module designs, starting with a capacity of 150 MW with plans to upgrade to 300 MW in the future.
“This is the only true agri-PV specific module production line worldwide, as it combines the panel assembly process with coating the glass panel to achieve higher photosynthetic active radiation for the plants under the panel,” said Mondragon Assembly.
The company noted that Brite Solar provided its patented nanomaterials and deposition method.
“It is a very interesting project, both in terms of development and applicability of the module,” says Mondragon Assembly Area Sales Manager Izaro Aretxaga. “We believe that this future application will allow us to make a real difference in the solar energy sector and take another step towards a more sustainable world.”
In November 2023, Mondragon Assembly provided the French company Reden Solar with a 400 MW production line for agricultural voltaic modules.
