Introduction
On the former dividing line between East and West Germany, a landmark energy transition is underway. RP Global has begun construction on its first German solar photovoltaic (PV) park, transforming a spoil tip in Harbke, Saxony-Anhalt, from a symbol of coal’s past into a beacon of. Converting abandoned or soon-to-close coal mines into solar farms could provide enough power to meet the demands of a country the size of Germany, according to a first-of-its-kind analysis. Researchers from Global Energy Monitor (GEM) have identified 312 surface coal mines that have been shut since.
