Empowering Tomorrow: Eternia Solar’s Journey Towards a Greener Lithuania

In the last years, Eternia Solar has undertaken several noteworthy projects that have strengthened its position in the renewable energy market. Recently, the company expanded its portfolio with several large-scale projects.

One such project is a 1.3 MW power project at Lithuania’s largest plywood manufacturing company, and one of the largest in Europe, Sakuona. This solar power plant is equipped with 3209 units of Risen modules and 13 units of Sungrow inverters. With the help of this solar power plant, the company will significantly reduce its carbon footprint and save over 500 tons of CO2 annually.

The largest solar project implemented this year, reaching 5 MW, was installed for the company EIKA. In this solar project by the real estate developer, 9199 units of Trinasolar modules and 36 units of Sungrow inverters were installed.

The company is also pleased with its existing clients who entrust new projects to them. One such client is Humana LT, a company that aims to reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry by selling second-hand clothes. Humana LT has installed its second solar power plant on its roof, moving towards a more sustainable future for its business. To set up this 500 kW solar power plant, 1350 units of CanadianSolar modules and 5 units of SolarEdge inverters were used.

Eternia Solar places significant emphasis on the maintenance and operation of solar projects. As regular maintenance is key to the stable long-term lifespan of a project, the company provides the most innovative, comprehensive range of operation and maintenance services.

Currently, we provide operation and maintenance services for 165 projects in Lithuania, with a total capacity of 49 MW, as well as for 24 projects in Poland, with a capacity of 24 MWp, and one project in Cyprus with a capacity of 2.78 MWp. These services are offered to solar parks and power plants installed by both our company and other businesses.

In the near future, Eternia Solar plans to add more completed projects to its list. Currently, projects with a total capacity exceeding 17 MW are in the development process.
