The first section of the Disneyland Paris solar canopy plant - that will produce 36 GWh/year by 2023 - is now operating. These solar panels will be placed across the top of the main parking lot.
The plant, which already has over 46,000 photovoltaic panels installed in the main guest parking lot, will be one of the largest in Europe upon completion. The solar canopies generate renewable energy at the same time as they provide additional guest enhancements, including shade and shelter from direct sunlight, rain or snow. The first section of the solar canopy plant is operational: 10 GWh will now be supplied per year – which is equivalent to the annual energy consumption of a city of 4,800 inhabitants.
The Disneyland Paris press release has all the juicy numbers for those interested.
