The rooftop solar system was built for a global logistics service provider with headquarters in Antwerp, Belgium. The installation has been completed with solar modules supplied by Trina Solar under a sales agreement between the company and Invictus, a Belgian company, partner of the Benelux TEC Servicegroup.
The company claims that the solar system is expected to be fully operational by end 2009 and represents an investment of EUR166m. The company claims that the installation decreases CO2 emissions of 17,000,000 kg and supplies the average annual consumption of energy for approximately 14,000 families.
Arturo Herrero, vice president of special key accounts of Trina Solar, said: “We are very pleased to partner with Invictus on the successful installation of the largest rooftop solar system in Europe. We are delighted that Trina Solar’s modules were selected for this landmark achievement by our customer Invictus, with whom we are working closely in Belgium as well as in other European countries as PV installations continue to expand in the region.”
