The Rothenburg Solar Park is a photovoltaic power station in Rothenburg, Oberlausitz in Germany. Initially it had a capacity of 20.5 megawatts (MW). The solar park is equipped with 273,240  CdTe-modules from First Solar, and 11 Siemens central inverters. The project was commissioned in 2009.[1] The original solar farm was divided into three fields on the airfield site.[2]

In September 2012, the three existing plants were supplemented by a fourth with a rated capacity of 15.2 MWp. As a result, the solar park now has a total capacity of 37 MWp. Unlike the first three plants, the fourth uses solar modules from Yingli and BYD.[3]
