Juwi GmbH, a subsidiary of MVV Energie AG, has signed a major agreement with Foresight and Mirova for the sale of a 267 MW photovoltaic (PV) portfolio in Greece.
Juwi, as EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) and O&M (Operation and Maintenance) contractor, will be responsible for technical design, component procurement and construction.
Construction is scheduled to start in August 2024, with commissioning scheduled for the first quarter of 2026.
This sale is part of Juwi’s strategy of diversification and international growth, combining internal development with the acquisition of mature projects.
Recent examples include the 204 MW Kozani solar park in Greece and the 223 MW “Pike” solar park in Colorado, USA.
Stephan Hansen, Juwi’s COO, points out that this project becomes the largest in Juwi’s history, affirming their leading position in selected foreign markets.

Technology and Production Capacity

The portfolio sold, initially acquired from Hive Energy Ltd, comprises three project clusters located in the Fthiotida and Larissa regions.
The installations will use around 430,000 bifacial solar modules and over 800 string inverters.
Around 16,000 single-axis tracking systems will optimize production, generating around 515 million kilowatt-hours of electricity per year, equivalent to the needs of over 100,000 people.
These installations cover an area of 430 hectares, demonstrating the scale of the project.
