The solar power plant, which will be built and operated by Opel Solar, will use the company’s TF-800 single-axis tracker and the SF-45 dual-axis tracker.

The power project is expected to produce approximately 43MWh of electricity per year.

Opel Solar CEO Leon Pierhal said this is the first installation for Opel at a private or municipally owned water plant.

"Our solar tracker installations can be an ideal, cost effective model for private utilities and municipalities nationwide," Pierhal said.

Opel Solar is a developer and supplier of ground-based and rooftop photovoltaic tracker systems, and high concentration photovoltaic solar panels.
