Ghelamco starts building its own photovoltaic farms

Real estate investor Ghelamco signed a contract with Revolt Energy to launch the construction of photovoltaic farms with a total capacity of 10 MW as the company aims to achieve energy neutraritility by 2024. The photovoltaic farms will be constructed in six locations within the Opole region, and the start of clean electricity production is planned for Q3 this year.

Jeroen van der Toolen, Managing Director of Ghelamco Poland says the company has been buying energy with green certificates since 2015, and building photovoltaic farms is another step to reducing its carbon footprint. Ghelamco will use renewable energy from photovoltaic farms for its Warsaw Unit. According to the company calculations, the CO2 emissions over the building's entire life cycle be reduced by more than 50%.
