The municipality of Windach in Landsberg, Bavaria, has installed a 6.6 MW DC-optimized ground mount solar plant which has generated 6.57 GWh in its first nine months of operation.
The 12,408 module solar array began operation last February and borders the A 96 highway between Munich and Memmingen. To ensure the project would receive widespread support, Gemeindewerke Windach canvassed the opinions of various interest groups in the region.
“It was important to us to highlight the benefits of the plant,” says Florian Zarbo, CEO of Gemeindewerke Windach. “After all, beyond climate protection, there are many other reasons for generating electricity ourselves. For example, local, decentralized energy generation relieves the strain on the grid and creates greater scope for heat and electricity storage, which will become increasingly relevant in the future.”
The system uses SolarEdge technology and includes power optimizers which attach directly to modules enabling independent operation. The ground mount solution can also be placed at various pitches or orientations.

The United States seems set on propelling itself backwards.
Maybe, as they say, “Hell has a special place reserved in it” for people like Thom Tillis, Republican Senator from North Carolina, who enabled Trump to rape and destroy the United States.
That was until it became clear to Tillis that he could jump ship, write a scathing book about the president, get all over mainstream news promoting it, and go on to enjoy another chapter of political success.
That we Americans are so stupid that we accept this blatant hypocrisy and criminality is sad proof that we’re not the people we were 20 years ago. Maybe what many people are saying are correct: we deserved what we got.
Here’s a short video from Elle Cordova that reminds us that science is something of a rarity in human history.
The great tyrants of history have done their best to cause the people they ruled to reject science, simply to ensure the masses are ignorant, terrified, superstitious, and thus easily controlled.
The current political administration is particularly engrossed in the rejection of science. I wonder why.
