Sonnedix Oita Solar, a 38.7 MW solar PV plant, has began commercial operation. This is the first large scale solar PV project fully managed through the development, financing and construction phase by Sonnedix Japan for the Sonnedix Group.
Located in the Oita prefecture, the plant is expected to produce 46,400 MWh of clean energy during its first full year of operation, equivalent to powering around 15,500 households, avoiding the emission of around 22,502 metric tons CO2 per year. The electricity generated by the solar plant will be sold to Kyushu Electric, through a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement.
Sonnedix Oita Solar, built by Maetel Construction Japan, is powered by 340 Wp LG ground-mounted modules, as well as 1,667 kW central PV inverters manufactured by Toshiba- Mitsubishi-Electric Industrial Systems Corporation (TMEIC).
