Vārme Latvia Solar Farm: Powering the National Grid
The Vārme facility features 142,000 bifacial solar panels, each with a 660 W capacity. These advanced panels capture sunlight from both sides, maximizing energy generation.
Projected to produce 99 GWh of electricity annually, the farm will make a substantial contribution to Latvia’s grid and help the country meet its renewable energy targets.
This project follows a broader trend of increasing investment in large-scale solar initiatives across the region, similar to the financing secured for a 148 MW project in Dobele PVKnowhow Latvia solar project Secures 81 Million Euros for 148 MW Breakthrough – PVknowhow.com and another 148 MW solar farm in Zemgale Latvia solar farm financing Secured: 82 Million for 148 MW Project.
