Sustainable logistics center C3 Bremen
At the beginning of October, one of the largest connected photovoltaic systems on the roof of an industrial property in Germany and Europe was connected to the grid.
A total of 23,000 PV modules and 52 inverters on the more than 80,000 square meter roof of the C3 Bremen supply the property with electricity. The solar service provider Re-Source generates 8.4 million kilowatt hours of solar power per year with the almost 9.3 MWp module output. This is equivalent to supplying more than 2,400 households. The surplus quantities can be used to supply households or industrial partners via direct contracts. For the seaport and logistics service provider BLG Logistics, the new logistics center is an important component of its sustainability strategy.
Award on November 13
This was also honoured by the German Transport Research Association (DVWG), which presented the overall project with the special "Energy Efficiency" award on 13 November in Frankfurt's Paulskirche, which recognizes successful projects and solutions that significantly reduce energy consumption and climate-relevant emissions in the transport sector in a measurable and verifiable manner. "With growing freight traffic, the sustainable design of supply chains is more important than ever. This also applies to real estate, which accounts for a particularly high proportion ofCO2 emissions in logistics. In order to achieve set climate targets, the space used by logistics centers must be used as efficiently as possible," says jury member Prof. Dr. Claudia Kemfert, explaining the decision.
"As a flagship project for green logistics, C3 Bremen is much more innovative, holistic and sustainable in this respect. It includes a wide range of components, from a large-scale photovoltaic system to various energy efficiency measures for the building envelope and green spaces. This convinced the jury."
