Hamm Leads Ruhr Region in PV Expansion with 1,017 New Balcony Systems in 2024
Hamm, a city of approximately 100,982 inhabitants, has emerged as a leader in photovoltaic (PV) expansion. In 2024, it installed 1,017 new balcony PV systems, ranking second in the Ruhr region for both capacity and growth.
The city's commitment to solar power is evident in its numbers. Hamm had the largest installed PV capacity in the Ruhr region last year, with a total of 40,000 plug-and-play solar systems registered. This figure represents a 13 percent increase from the previous record year of 2023. Notably, the number of rooftop solar systems in the region grew by 22 percent, while balcony power stations saw a remarkable 127 percent increase.
To support this growth, the KlimaAgentur Hamm offers consultations for interested parties. Citizens can learn about requirements and funding opportunities for solar systems through this agency, helping to drive the city's renewable energy transition.
Hamm's photovoltaic expansion in 2024 was nothing short of impressive. With 1,017 new balcony PV systems and a significant increase in overall capacity, the city has solidified its position as a leader in the Ruhr region's renewable energy landscape. The KlimaAgentur Hamm's support has been instrumental in this success, providing guidance and resources to residents looking to harness the power of the sun.
