Fifteen 'solar flowers' have been installed at Ta’ Xħajma in Gozo for the generation of electricity. They are the first of their kind in Europe. The smart installations look like sunflowers, open automatically at sunrise, follow the movement of the sun, and close at sundown. Each 'flower' can generate 40% more power than traditional solar panels. Funded through the RRP C1-I5 Renewable Energy Investments in Roads and Public Spaces, part of the EU’s NextGenerationEU Recovery and Resilience Plan, this €850,000 investment demonstrates what can be achieved when innovation, renewable energy and sustainable transport work together.
