Growing Energy
Solar becomes the new king of electricity.

Renewable energy is expanding across the planet, spearheaded by solar power. Over the past decade total worldwide PV capacity has doubled every two years. Today solar power is a well-established source of clean and affordable electricity. Global solar capacity additions are expected to reach 145 gigawatts in 2021 (equal to the electricity consumption of 41 million EU households). Solar will continue to set new global deployment records in the decade ahead and is fast becoming a major source of electricity in Central and Eastern Europe.
Policymakers and industry leaders have begun to accept this shift towards solar. The energy transition is picking up momentum. It is up to companies like Kraftfeld to translate this shift into reality. Our longstanding experience with investing in solar and bringing solar projects from project idea to operation has left us well equipped for this challenge.
Innovation and economies of scale continue to drive down costs. Solar power today outcompetes coal- and gas-generated electricity on price. Solar is now the cheapest source of electricity.
At the same time solar farms are the only generation technology with a beneficial impact on the local and global environment. Well-designed and implemented solar parks have become habitats for insects, pollinators and birds.

The ability to take a solar project from start to operation is our greatest asset today. Since 2009 Kraftfeld has built the expertise and networks necessary to develop, execute and operate solar parks. Today this is the basis for the successful expansion of our own portfolio. Below is a selection of solar farms put into operation by us as well as projects under development.

Kraftfeld was founded in 2009 as Pressburg Partners. The company has developed and operated solar farms in six European countries. During this time it has acted as developer, operator and investor. Kraftfeld's track record includes projects with at investment volume for the period of more than 300 million Euros.
Today Kraftfeld manages its solar assets and works to expand its portfolio. Kraftfeld started a pipeline of large solar farms in Hungary, Romania and Austria in 2019. The company now has several hundred megawatts under development in these core markets.
Kraftfeld has offices in Vienna, Budapest, and Bucharest. An in-house trading team sells the power produced by its assets via PPAs and on the spot market.
