Record interest: Solarpark Hengersberg sold out in just 48 hours

Investor magnet: Solarpark Hengersberg inspires the market

The Hengersberg solar park with 8.7 MWP performance is extremely popular with investors. Within just 48 hours after publication on the Milk the Sun marketplace, the offer was not only completely out of print, but even exaggerated triple. The impressive gross profit of over 13% and the advantageous location in Lower Bavaria make the solar park on the network that has been on the network since May 2023, which significantly underlines the increasing interest in photovoltaic systems in Bavaria.

The success story of the Hengersberg solar park

The Hengersberg solar park, located in the municipality of Schwarzach in the Deggendorf district of Lower Bavaria, was put into operation in 2023 and has an installed output of 8.7 MWP. The facility was designed and implemented as a open-air photovoltaic system with a fixed impact and modularly. The exact geographical position of the park is 48,7842, 13,0433, which guarantees an optimal sun yield.

The extraordinary demand for this solar project was manifested on April 4, 2025, when the shares at the solar park were offered via the online marketplace Milk the Sun. With 181 units, the offer was not only fully sold out within just 48 hours, but was exaggerated by three times. The press release of Solar Directinvest GmbH on April 4, 2025 underlines the enormous attractiveness of this investment.

Economic factors of success

The outstanding response to the offer is explained by several economic advantages that the Hengersberg solar park offers. In the first place is the extraordinarily high gross profit of over 13%, which is secured by an advantageous power purchase agree (ppa). In addition to this above-average return, investors benefit from double protection: the system is already productive on the network and has a tender surcharge that guarantees that even if the Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG) is billed, a clear plus can be generated in the basic term.

The geographical location in Lower Bavaria also contributes to profitability, since this location is one of the sunniest regions in Germany. The specific yield of photovoltaic systems in Germany is an average of 800 to 1,200 kWh/kWp a year, whereby the actual values vary depending on the location.

Solar Directinvest GmbH and Milk the Sun: Successful partnership

Solar Directinvest GmbH, founded in October 2016 by Managing Director Andreas Köhler, plays a crucial role in the development of the Hengersberg solar park. The company, headquartered in Nuremberg, specializes in the development of photovoltaic direct investments on roof and open spaces. Over the years, the company has recorded impressive growth and already employed over 60 in and external employees in October 2022.

The business philosophy of Solar Directinvest GmbH is based on the development of high -quality solar projects that are promoted to the series. The company provides interested parties to the world's largest photovoltaic investment marketplace Milk the Sun. This strategic partnership has proven to be extremely successful in how the case of the Hengersberg solar park impressively demonstrates.

Demanding corporate goal

Solar Directinvest GmbH pursues ambitious goals for the future. By the end of 2025, the company plans to develop photovoltaic systems with a new total output of 300 megawatts. The photovoltaic systems that have already been implemented supply around 30,000 households a year with electricity, whereby the goal is to double this number to over 60,000 households by the end of 2025.

In addition, the company actively contributes to climate protection. The PV systems, which have been realized so far, save around 36,000 tons of CO2 emissions per year. By the end of 2025, Solar Direct Invest is aiming to increase this value to 72,000 tons annually, which corresponds to the CO2 emissions of 24,300 aircraft on the Munich-New York route.

The role of Milk the Sun as a marketplace for solar investments

Milk The Sun has established itself as the world's leading marketplace for commercial photovoltaic systems. As an online marketplace, the company already recognized the future potential in the field of solar energy in 2012 and relied on a wide range of providers and investors. Through many years of experience and deep insights into the industry, Milk The Sun was able to build a portfolio of attractive investment options and develop a user -friendly platform.

The platform offers various functions that facilitate the investment process, including filters and merchants for searching and notifications about new entrances. This user -friendly design largely contributes to the success of the marketplace and enables investors to react quickly to attractive offers such as the Hengersberg solar park.

After the overwhelming success of the Hengersberg project, Milk The Sun has already announced that it would be of a similar size to offer other highly attractive solar parks in the coming weeks and months, which should be particularly interesting for those investors who were not able to play at Hengersberg.

Tax advantages and financial incentives for solar investments

The numerous tax advantages are an essential factor for the high attractiveness of photovoltaic investments. Investors can benefit from a high investment deduction amount (IAB) of up to 50% and from an additional special depreciation of 40% in accordance with Section 7g (5) EStG and a linear depreciation of 5% PA for the remaining residual value. Ideally, over 60% of the investment costs can be written off in the first two years.

In addition, 20-year-old legally guaranteed feed-in tariff according to the EEG ensures long-term planning security. This makes solar systems a stable property value that is ideal for diversifying an investment portfolio.

Solar Directinvest GmbH emphasizes that a PV investment is particularly attractive for well-earned employees, self-employed or entrepreneurs who are confronted with a tax burden of around 50% from a certain level of income. With a solar investment, you can legally and sustainably reduce this tax load and at the same time generate long-term high profits.

Bavaria's role in photovoltaic development

Bavaria takes up a leading position in expanding photovoltaics in Germany. The Bavarian state government has cleared the way for more solar projects on arable land and adjusted its opening regulation: Instead of 70, 200 bids for arable and grassland areas in Bavaria may now be rescheduled per calendar year. This expansion enables a significant increase in solar capacity in the Free State.

However, there is also criticism of Bavarian energy policy. Despite ambitious goals, Bavaria is lagging behind when installing photovoltaic systems on state roofs. According to a answer from the Ministry of the Construction, when asked by the Greens in the state parliament, only 654 state buildings were in operation on 654 state buildings, although according to a calculation of the Ministry of the Construction, around 1,300 roofs would be suitable for photovoltaic systems. In order to achieve the self-contained goal of equipping all suitable state roofs with PV systems by 2025, the number would have to be doubled in the course of this year.

The exceptional success of the Hengersberg solar park impressively demonstrates the growing interest in photovoltaic investments in Bavaria and Germany. The triple oversubsmanship within just 48 hours underlines both the high demand for sustainable investments and the attractiveness of the economic framework for solar systems.

Solar Directinvest GmbH and the Milk the Sun marketplace have established themselves as important players in this growth market and make an important contribution to the energy transition in Germany. With ambitious goals for the further expansion of solar capacities and an increasing number of households that are supplied with solar power, they actively contribute to climate protection.

The combination of ecological advantages, attractive returns and tax incentives makes investments in solar parks like Hengersberg a convincing option for investors. The trend towards renewable energies and sustainable investments will continue to strengthen in the coming years, which can be expected to be expected further success stories such as those of the Hengersberg solar park.
