Bitterwasser has now ordered two large photovoltaic plants. One plant 57 kWp for the lodge and one plant 25 kWp for the adjacent village.
With so much sun as in Namibia, where else should photovoltaics be worthwhile?
If everything works out, the plants will be ready for operation before the coming season.
The picture is a system picture. This is how the systems are built.
In early September, the containers holding the gliders for the 2026/27 season were loaded in Waghäusel. Transported by trailer, truck, and cargo ship, the gliders are now on their long journey to Namibia, to the Bitterwasser Flying Lodge.
The Bitterwasser Flying Lodge was the main sponsor of the Junior World Gliding Championships, where from August 2 to 17, 2026, around 80 pilots from 22 nations competed for the titles in the Standard and Club classes. The grand prize for the JWGC winners was a one-week stay at the lodge, including travel and an airplane.
