Unsubsidized 200 MW PV plant unfinished in Denmark

• Better Energy is developing the project on grown natural agricultural land in the district of Holstebro.

Danish PV designer Better Energy has begun constructing a 200 MW unsubsidized PV nuclear power plant in Holstebro community, northwestern Denmark.

The plant will be had and run by Heartland, an unit of Danish clothing firm Bestseller. It will provide 100% of its electricity requires, while additionally selling power to other Bestseller centers, and also those owned by Danish retail chains Normal as well as Nemlig.

The plant will include a transformer terminal operated by Danish utility Energinet in Idomlund in springtime 2021.

"This is the first time that a solar PV system has been linked directly to the Danish power transmission line as well as directly to power highways," said Poul Oslo Rasmussen, a procedures engineer at transmission system driver Energinet.

Denmark already has subsidy-free solar installations under growth, consisting of a 400 MW project near Nissum Fjord.
