Sonnedix announced today energization of the 4 megawatt Grove Farm solar plant in Tolland, Somerset, in the west of England. The plant will meet annual electricity needs of more than 1,260 homes, using polycrystalline modules and utility class inverters.

“ This was our first project in the UK “, said Sonnedix President Franck Constant. “ Therefore, we want to thank our partners on this project, the contractor, the local population and authorities as well as the local regional electricity utility for achieving on-schedule commercial operation of this plant.
