Inauguration of photovoltaic power plant at Arkema’s Serquigny industrial facility

06-Nov-2009 - France

Neoen and Arkema announced the start-up of a photovoltaic power plant on Arkema’s Serquigny industrial site in Haute-Normandie, France. This 174 kWc solar power plant, representing an investment of over 1 million euros, has been built into the roof of one of the site’s maintenance buildings.

"This project to produce clean and renewable electricity has its natural place on an Arkema industrial site, as we are resolutely committed to developing solutions to the challenges of sustainable development, in particular with a wide range of products dedicated to photovoltaics," explains François Jaime, Arkema Vice President Energy.

This photovoltaic solar power plant is connected to the power grid via a transformer, and will supply enough electricity to power the equivalent of around forty homes. Its design makes it eligible for a feed-in tariff incentive allowance. Responsible for the investment and the project ownership of this solar power plant, Neoen will run the project for the duration of the lease granted by Arkema.
