A Finnish district heating company Elenia Lämpö Oy invested in Savosolar solar thermal system to produce CO2-free energy for their customer, which in this case is a nursing home located in Hämeenlinna. The heat is used for domestic hot water and pool heating.
The installation is the biggest operational solar thermal system in Finland.

Lübeck, Germany (largest solar thermal plant in Schleswig-Holstein federal state)
Summa Energy has been selected as general contractor to build a 9 MW solar thermal system on behalf of Stadtwerke Lübeck Energie GmbH for its district heating network, which supplies households in the Moisling city district with healthy heating. Only 788 pieces of Savo 16S large scale high performance flat plate collectors are sufficient to getting combined with an 3,000 m³ heat storage tank and produce carbon free heat for the needs of all connected consumers.
Additionally, a PV system will be built on site to generate the electricity consumed by the solar pumps, thus unburdening the local power grid.
The scope of supply includes also all the land works, the construction of a technical building and the supervision system to operate the plant in automatic mode.
A new forerunner project on the large scale solar thermal market in which Savosolar has been involved: The first solar thermal field with double glasses collectors on trackers. This innovation has been done to optimize the annual solar production with a limited available area. This new solar thermal plant is a property of newHeat and will delivered heat the network of the city of Pons, which is managed by Dalkia.
Savosolar supply on this project consist in the complete solar field field as a turnkey solution, it means, the design, the supply and the installation of the solar collectors and its trackers, as well as the piping, until the solar station. It represents 112 Savo 15 DG-M collectors, which will reduce of 210 tons per year the CO2 emissions for the city’s heat needs.
