LONGi Secures 81.66MW Solar Module Deal in Greece

LONGi Green Energy Technology has agreed to supply 81.66 MW of solar panels for two utility-scale photovoltaic projects in central Greece being developed by independent power producer Faria Renewables. The order calls for high-efficiency modules to be installed during the construction phase of both facilities, which are intended to add new renewable generation capacity to Greece’s electricity network.

The deal underscores Greece’s continued push to expand large-scale clean energy as the country works to raise the share of electricity from renewables. For LONGi, the agreement strengthens its footprint in the European solar market and supports the development of solar infrastructure as developers look for advanced photovoltaic technology to improve efficiency and maximize output.

How will LONGi’s 81.66 MW modules impact Faria Renewables’ Greek solar projects?

  • Increased annual energy yield: LONGi’s high-efficiency 81.66 MW module supply is expected to help Faria Renewables extract more electricity from the same project footprint across Greece’s utility-scale sites.
  • Better performance under real-world conditions: High-efficiency modules are designed to support stronger output across varying temperatures and irradiance, which can improve expected generation during different seasonal periods typical of central Greece.
  • Stronger grid-contribution at scale: By equipping two large projects with a combined 81.66 MW of panels, Faria Renewables can add meaningful new renewable capacity to Greece’s electricity network, supporting system-level decarbonization goals.
  • Construction-phase readiness: The modules will be installed during the construction window of the two facilities, helping Faria Renewables keep development timelines aligned with procurement and installation schedules.
  • Potential optimization of project economics: Higher module efficiency can reduce balance-of-system constraints related to yield (e.g., supporting more generation capacity where site and layout limits apply), improving the projects’ long-term value proposition.
  • Local and regional supply-chain benefits: Procuring advanced panels for central Greece projects can strengthen availability of European-deployed PV technology and support ongoing market participation for major module suppliers like LONGi.
  • Technology differentiation for permitting and stakeholders: Deploying higher-performance modules can support project documentation and stakeholder communications by reinforcing expected energy production assumptions used in feasibility and permitting.
  • Competitive positioning in Greece’s utility-scale pipeline: Securing advanced equipment can help Faria Renewables remain competitive when competing for grid access, investment interest, and potential future tenders or co-development opportunities.
  • Reinforced European market presence: For LONGi, supplying these panels ties its technology to operational utility-scale projects in Greece, which can influence future panel selection decisions by other developers in the region.
  • Contribution to Greece’s renewable expansion trajectory: The combined 81.66 MW of new PV hardware supports the broader national effort to raise renewables penetration and broaden low-carbon generation options for customers and industry.
