/MECKLENBURG-WESTERN POMERANIA, GERMANY, August 5, 2025, 12:00 CET, RENEWABLE MARKET WATCH™/
The Kentzlin solar park, located in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, has been successfully connected to the German power grid. It has an 11.5 MWp capacity and is the first solar power plant of MET Group in Germany. The projected annual energy yield of the plant is approximately 13 GWh, marking a significant achievement in MET Group’s renewable energy expansion.
The Kentzlin solar park was acquired in 2023. Following this, the MET group continued the permitting development process and secured an award in the EEG tender. IBC SOLAR, a well-established European EPC company, implemented the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) of the project.
Christian Hürlimann, CEO of Renewables Development at MET Group, said: “Bringing Kentzlin into operation is a major achievement for MET’s renewables activities and a key step in our strategy to grow in Western Europe. Germany is one of Europe’s most competitive and mature markets, and this project is a strong foundation for further investments.”
The successful commissioning of the Kentzlin solar park enhances MET Group’s presence in Germany, where the company is already involved in the natural gas and electricity markets. Their operations include underground gas storage, LNG imports, and energy supply for both industrial and residential customers. By entering the German renewables market, MET is demonstrating its broader commitment to facilitating the energy transition across Europe.
