hep solar and Volllast are paving the way for joint solar projects in southern Germany

The Baden-Württemberg-based solar specialist hep solar has signed a cooperation agreement with Volllast GmbH. The strategic partnership aims to jointly implement solar projects with an annual connected capacity of 100 MWp (DC) in the future.

In this joint venture, Volllast GmbH, a PV specialist with roots in southern Germany, contributes its expertise in securing local land. It will take responsibility for this crucial first step in project development. In return, hep solar will be responsible for grid connection, construction, electricity marketing, as well as the operation and maintenance of the solar projects.

First projects already in the planning stages

The first three joint projects have been identified in the Dillingen an der Donau district. They cover an area of approximately 35 hectares and are on the verge of entering the project development phase.

Martin Vogt, Global Head of Project Development at hep solar, is optimistic about the collaboration: “We look forward to working together and are continuing to build on our strategy of regional collaborations and partnerships. Through the partnership with Volllast, we can accelerate the development of solar projects and make them even more efficient. Additionally, this collaboration offers both sides long-term planning security and strengthens our regional presence in southern Germany.”

Jörg Kranzfelder, Project Developer at Volllast GmbH, explains: “The energy transition is an essential component of a competitive economy. Solar and wind energy provide the most cost-effective energy. Our projects not only offer companies affordable electricity but also benefit all citizens with an inexpensive, regional, and green electricity tariff. Through our projects, we build public acceptance, preserve jobs, and strengthen the economy.”

“The partnership with hep solar demonstrates how forward-looking projects for society can be created—in collaboration with grid operators, energy suppliers, and local governments,” adds Tobias Mader, Managing Director of Volllast GmbH.
