Joint venture partner of SES 21 AG wins Energy Globe World Award

Oderding (ots) - "Open Renewables/Lobosolar", Portuguese joint
venture partner of SES 21 AG, Oderding, wins the most renowned
environmental award of the world: the "ENERGY GLOBE World Award" in
the "Youth" category. The prize was awarded in Prague at the
invitation of the EC council with all European Ministers of the
Environment attending. More than 800 projects from all continents of
the world had been submitted.

Every year, this prize honours outstanding environment solutions
that protect our resources or use renewable energies such as sun,
wind, biomass etc. The Portuguese project by Open Renewables/
Lobosolar "Rock in Rio" was made possible by SES 21 AG products of
the highest quality. This project used monocrystalline solar modules
of the SES 21 AG subsidiary "renewis pv factory". These modules
provided the open air concert "Rock in Rio" with CO2 neutrality. The
solar modules were an essential part of the design and fully
integrated into the stage setting for the concerts in Lisbon and
Madrid. More than 600.000 people in all visited the two concerts. And
they were all able to get an idea of the capacity of the solar
modules that are developed in Oderding and manufactured in Portugal.
Outside Portugal, the solar modules used of the type "renewis PV
175-m/M" are in Europe sold exclusively by SES 21 AG.

After the concerts, 197 Portuguese schools took part in a
competition for energy efficiency. The twenty best schools won a
solar power system made up of the solar modules of the Oderding based
company SES 21 AG that were used in the concerts. Compensation for
the electricity fed into the grid will supplement the respective
school budgets for more than twenty years. And thousands of students
will thus have the opportunity to experience up close how solar power
technology works.
