Solar power plant
Marstal - Ærø - Denmark
Ærø has the world's largest solar power plants, with an area of 18,365 m². It covers a third of Marstal's power consumption.
Ærø is endeavouring to make the island self-sufficient in energy, and in 2002 a figure of 40 % self-sufficiency in renewable energy was reached. The initiatives have entailed high international recognition and Ærø is considered as one of the world's leaders in this field.
Ærø's three district heating systems of solar collectors have won international acclaim. With the recent expansion the system in Marstal is now the world's largest solar collector system for heating.
In 2002 three modern wind turbines were erected. The wing tip of these turbines is 100 m (300 feet) above the ground and between them the mills cover 50 % of the island's electricity consumption.
