Czech Republic Tens of megawatts on roofs across country

The first joint photovoltaic system, with an output of 2 MW, has already been built in CTPark Prague East in Nupaky near Prague, on the roofs of warehouses where the logistics company Raben is located. A test run of this rooftop PV system is currently underway. New power plants are also being built at CTParks in Chrášt'any near Prague, Hradec Králové, Brno, Ostrava and Cerhovice near Hořovice.

The construction of photovoltaic power plants is an integral part of the long-term and comprehensive sustainability initiative of our CTParks, which we design as energy independent. We are constantly looking for and then applying new and more efficient solutions that will contribute to higher quality and lower energy consumption in our buildings. We do this in line with our long-term solar plan, which aims to build a cumulative installed capacity of 250 to 300 MWp by 2030 in the Czech Republic alone.

The power plant in Nupaky has been built on the roofs of logistics buildings on an area of over 8,422 sqm and will produce 1.94 GWh of emission-free electricity per year. In a year, this photovoltaic system saves 964 tonnes of CO2 emissions. The electricity produced from the PV will be consumed locally within the CTP site. The warehouses on which the PV plant is located are used by the multinational logistics company Raben, which itself has very ambitious climate targets.

Photovoltaics can help Czech industry not only to reduce energy bills, but also to meet climate commitments, which in the case of CTP are extremely ambitious. We are also discussing other possibilities of cooperation, for example in the field of electromobility or EPC energy saving projects.
