Hamburg, 20 December 2006 - The European Commission today authorised EU money for Hamburg-based Conergy AG to develop the worlds most modern PV production facility. The plant in Frankfurt an der Oder will generate more than 1,000 jobs in the medium term and from mid-2007 will manufacture state-of-the-art PV modules with the "Made in Germany" label.
European funds have been approved for Conergys overall investment plans in the Frankfurt-Oder region, including a possible second development phase. Due to the high total investment, the EUs approval of EUR 76 million in funding was a prerequisite for progress-related disbursement of funding by the State of Brandenburg.
