Steinm\u00fchle is stepping up its efforts to promote renewable energy. Additional photovoltaic systems have recently been installed on the roofs of Steinm\u00fchle. Egon Vaupel, chairman of the Steinm\u00fchle Marburg School Association, inaugurated the systems together with representatives of the Sonneninitiative association and school principal Dirk Konnertz on the last day of school before summer break. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe school association is making the roofs of the School Forum and the new \u2018Atrium\u2019 building available to the Sonneninitiative association. The association, in turn, makes them available to interested citizens who want to generate environmentally friendly solar power there,\u201d Konnertz reported, explaining: \u201cFor us, this project is another step toward utilizing renewable energy.\u201d Steinm\u00fchle already has its own hydroelectric power plant, which covers its own electricity needs and feeds surplus electricity into the grid. <\/p>\n

With the continued installation of solar panels on buildings\u2014part of the Schulforum was already equipped with its own system and has now been expanded in cooperation with the Sonneninitiative association\u2014the Steinm\u00fchle is on the right path toward the future: \u201cWe are considering installing solar panels on additional buildings.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sonneninitiative e.V., a Marburg-based association led by Volker Kl\u00f6s, is organizing the project and handling the accounting. It already operates 250 community solar power plants. <\/p>\n

The Steinm\u00fchle community solar power plant can generate up to 125 kilowatts of solar power. This can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 91 metric tons annually. The annual electricity generation of 122,000 kilowatt-hours would be sufficient to meet the private electricity needs of approximately 40 households in Marburg. <\/p>\n
