Deutsche Bank’s 7.56MW solar park in the southeast Italian commune of Torre Santa Susanna has been officially opened. The plant was a joint venture alongside EST Energie & Solar Technik, dean Solar and Sanyo, and is one of the largest tracking solar systems in Europe.

Installation of the 32,202 Sanyo’s HIT solar modules on Ideematec safetrack tracking systems was completed last December, before the plant was connected to the grid in April and officially opened at a ceremony earlier this month.

Although project development was overseen by a consortium led by Deutsche Bank’s Asset Finance and Leasing Renewable Energy Division, the turnkey plant has now been sold to an unnamed investor.
