aream Press release

Green power generation from solar energy was well above target in March 2021. Wind, on the other hand, blew less strongly than expected. "Overall, March was a good month for renewables," says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of aream Group.

A new solar park with a total capacity of 11.2 megawatts is to be connected to the grid in August 2021 in Rotthalmünster, Bavaria. This is being developed as a collaboration between aream GmbH's Clean Energy Future Fund and NaGa Solar. "It is interesting that direct marketing has been agreed with RWEST for the electricity from the plant," says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of aream Group. "This means that this segment is once again gaining in importance."

Sustainability goals are now firmly anchored among investors, and reducing their own CO2 emissions is a regular part of this. Green funds make a significant contribution to this. "For every one million euros invested in the Clean Energy Future Fund, for example, around 1,300 tons of CO2 were saved in 2020," says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of the aream Group. "That's 2,600 flights to Mallorca and back."

Renewable energies did not exploit their full potential in February 2021. For wind, for example, the yield in Germany was just 78 percent, for solar at least 85 percent. "On the other hand, Italy's solar yield was above target at 101 percent," says Markus W. Voigt, CEO of aream Group. "The target overachievement could have been even higher if the strong wind had not affected the solar plants."
