Watson Farley & Williams (WFW) advised Orrön Energy Greenfield AB on its sale of a 91 MW agrivoltaic energy project, where solar generation and farming are carried out on the same site, with a co-located battery option to Gülermak Renewables Ltd.
Located in Eastern Germany, the project is at the ready-to-permit stage, with Orrön Energy to continue developing the project until it is ready-to-build, which is expected to be reached no later than 2027.
