/ESSEN, March 2, 2023, 9:30 GMT, RWE/ RWE, the UK’s largest power generator and one of the largest renewables developers, has significantly expanded its solar and battery capabilities by acquiring JBM Solar, a large independent developer of solar and battery storage systems. With this acquisition RWE reaffirms its UK strategy by continuing to grow and to diversify its UK portfolio by adding further solar and battery projects. With the acquisition of JBM Solar, RWE takes over a mature pipeline with a combined capacity of around 6.1 gigawatts (GWac), split into 3.8 GWac of solar and 2.3 GWac of battery storage projects. Most of the projects are in the central and southern regions of England and a large proportion already have grid connections and land secured.

/LONDON, October 07, 2021, 14:35 BST, RWE, PPC, RENEWABLE MARKET WATCH^TM/ Greece is one of the sunniest countries in Europe and has ambitious growth plans for renewable energies. Two highly experienced energy groups, RWE and PPC, have joined forces to help accelerate the Greek energy transition by developing large-scale solar projects with a total capacity of up to 2 gigawatts (GW) in the country. Through this collaboration, the Greek power utility will continue to decarbonise its portfolio and move to renewable energy sources. For RWE, one of the leading producers of renewable power, it marks a first entry into the Greek market. 

/ESSEN, December 22, 2022, 9:30 GMT, RWE/ RWE and Forschungszentrum Jülich want to demonstrate how that can work in the Rhenish lignite mining district. The plan is to generate solar power in tandem with agricultural and horticultural activities on about seven hectares of recultivated land at the edge of Garzweiler Mine in Titz-Jackerath in the district of Düren in North Rhine-Westphalia. The research project is funded by the state of North Rhine-Westphalia through the progres.nrw programme. For Germany to be able to achieve its climate targets, the land must be made available for the expansion of solar power and innovative plans must be developed. In addition to Floating-PV plants on lakes, agrivoltaics (“Agri-PV”) offers major potential for expansion.

/DUBLIN, April 13, 2022, 9:30 BST, RWE/ RWE is the global leader in renewable energy with a firm target to achieve carbon neutrality by 2040, with a commitment to invest EUR50 billion by 2030 to expand its green generation capacity to 50GW. Along with this plan, the company will allocate up to EUR1.5 billion in Ireland through the renewable energy project under development. The company has a clear goal and know-how and wants to be a long-term energy partner supporting the Irish Government's plans to transition to 80% renewable electricity generation by 2030. 

/ROME, April 29, 2024, 9:30 BST, RWE/ RWE has started the construction of its first solar plant in Italy. Bosco, an 8.3 megawatt (MWac) ground-mounted solar plant, will be installed in Partinico Municipality near Palermo, Sicily. On a 16-hectare site, around 15,000 bifacial modules1 will have the capacity to generate enough green electricity to supply the equivalent of 7,000 Italian homes. Commissioning of this solar powerr plant is planned for the end of the year.

/ESSEN, August 25, 2022, 9:30 BST, RWE/ RWE has further strengthened its European renewables business by acquiring Alpha Solar, a Polish photovoltaic (PV) development company. With this, RWE takes over a solar project pipeline in Poland with a total capacity of approx. 3 GWac. The acquisition represents a strategic enhancement for RWE and adds to its existing global development pipeline of 10 gigawatts in solar projects. It was agreed to keep confidentiality on the purchase price. The acquired pipeline is spread across Poland. The majority of projects are of utility-scale in various stages of development. The maturity of projects ranges from early phase identified opportunities to ready-to-build projects.
