What is Solarstone doing in Estonia?

Solarstone is reinforcing Estonia's commitment to sustainable energy solutions by opening Europe's largest solar roof factory to produce 14 times as many building-integrated solar roofs as Tesla in the U.S. The factory can assemble 13,000 integrated solar panels per month.

How many solar panels are installed at Estonia dairy farm?

We built a solar power plant on the roof of Estonia Dairy Farm in Järva County, where we installed 644 solar panels. Over the years, we have vigorously expanded our solar energy production. The parks are located in 38 locations. More than 100 000 solar panels in total are located in our solar parks. The parks are located in 38 locations.

Why do solar parks generate the most electricity in Estonia?

In Estonia, solar parks usually generate the most electricity in May, as the days are quite long and the temperature is lower than in June-July. Lower temperatures help increase efficiency. It is also possible to generate energy in cloudy weather, because solar radiation reaches the solar panels through the clouds as well.

Is Estonia a good place to produce solar energy?

Contrary to the widespread belief, Estonia is an altogether good place to produce solar energy. In summer, the period of daylight starts earlier and ends later in Estonia than in Central Europe. In winter, when the sun is lower here, the amount produced is smaller, but not non-existent.

Will direct line PPAs help Estonia adopt solar?

Last year, Estonia installed 90 MW of PV, which is four times more than it had done since it began adopting solar. The growth was mainly due to a new regulation issued by the government in June and the big push came mainly from small installations. Direct line PPAs will be crucial to the adoption of utility-scale PV in Estonia.

Did Estonia introduce a new solar policy?

Yes, Estonia introduced a new policy for solar and renewables in June 2018. This policy led to the deployment of approximately 90 MW of solar power, bringing the cumulative capacity to around 107 MW by the end of 2018.
