Development plan for solar thermal energy in Lausen

On the previously agriculturally used area in Leipzig-Lausen, a mix of solar thermal open space systems and landscape planning is to be developed on approx. 16 ha. The Leipzig public utility company is developing Germany's largest open-space solar thermal plant to date.

For the project, seecon Ingenieure is responsible for the development of the land-use plan, the environmental report, the species protection report, the landscape analysis, the green-space plan and the impact/compensation assessment.

Within the preliminary draft, the compatibility between technical solar thermal systems and landscape planning as well as species and nature conservation was sounded out on the basis of various variants that seecon created for this purpose. The findings from the early participation will be qualified in terms of planning law in the design phase. In this process, there is close cooperation with green planning and species protection.
