300 MW solar portfolio in the Netherlands
Q ENERGY and the Dutch solar developer Tomorrow Energy have entered into an agreement to co-develop 21 solar projects in the Netherlands. The portfolio amounts to approximately 300 MW in total and is open for the potential integration of storage, agrivoltaic, and green hydrogen solutions.
Berlin, 20 September 2022. Q ENERGY today announced that it enters the renewable energy market of the Netherlands with a 300 MW solar portfolio in its pocket, which it will develop together with the renowned Dutch solar developer Tomorrow Energy. Both companies have signed an agreement to co-develop 21 solar projects which range between 4 and 40 MW in size. The mostly greenfield projects spread across the Netherlands with a majority located in the southern part of the country. The recently launched Q ENERGY is a green energy player on the European market and a direct affiliate of the top-tier Korean enterprise Hanwha Solutions.
