Iberdrola Powers Vodafone with New German Solar Park

• Iberdrola's 56-MWp solar park in Germany powers Vodafone, cutting 20,000 tonnes of CO2 annually with 80,000 bifacial modules. A green leap in energy!

Iberdrola SA has launched a 56-MWp solar park in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany, to supply green power to Vodafone's local unit. The Boldekow plant, Iberdrola's first solar project in Germany, was developed by SolarPro Holding and features 80,000 bifacial modules. It is expected to generate 50 GWh of electricity annually, offsetting 20,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions.

Vodafone committed to purchasing the plant's entire output under a power purchase agreement (PPA) signed in 2023. This agreement is part of Vodafone's broader initiative to procure 410 GWh of solar power across Germany, Portugal, and Spain.

How will Iberdrola's Boldekow solar park impact Vodafone's renewable energy goals in Germany?

• The Boldekow solar park will significantly contribute to Vodafone's renewable energy goals by providing a substantial portion of the 410 GWh of solar power the company aims to procure across Germany, Portugal, and Spain.
• By securing the entire output of the Boldekow plant, Vodafone will receive 50 GWh of clean energy annually, which will help reduce its carbon footprint and support its sustainability targets.
  
• The power purchase agreement (PPA) with Iberdrola ensures a stable and predictable supply of renewable energy, aiding Vodafone in achieving its goal of 100% renewable energy usage in its operations.
  
• The reduction of 20,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually from the Boldekow plant aligns with Vodafone's commitment to reducing its environmental impact and contributing to global climate change mitigation efforts.
  
• The partnership with Iberdrola through the Boldekow project exemplifies Vodafone's strategy to collaborate with leading renewable energy providers to enhance its green energy portfolio.
• The successful implementation of the Boldekow solar park may encourage Vodafone to pursue additional renewable energy projects in Germany and other regions, further advancing its sustainability agenda.
