Several thousand meters of copper cable were stolen from a solar farm in Pölchow (Rostock district). The burglary had been noticed during maintenance and repair work. Apparently, the unknown perpetrators forced open the fence to gain access to the site. The damage is estimated at several tens of thousands of euros.

Between 28 and 29.01.2023, unknown perpetrators entered the premises of the solar farm and tampered with transformer stations. Currently, there are no exact details about the exact composition of the loot, but the property and theft damage is estimated at about 60,000 EUR.

Unknown perpetrators broke into the Meerane solar park in Saxony between Tuesday morning and Thursday morning and stole 78 solar panels, according to initial findings.

Unknown perpetrators scaled the fence of the Stadelhofen solar farm and stole more than 150 solar modules worth approximately EUR 25,000. The PV park is located in the immediate vicinity of the Roßdorf am Berg exit and runs parallel to the BAB 70 federal freeway.
It turns out that especially unsecured parks with location to easy and fast escape are particularly endangered.

In the night of 27.12.2022 unknown perpetrators gained access to the photovoltaic park under construction. For this purpose, they cut through the fence and sabotaged the presumably temporary video surveillance. They then carried off solar modules worth around EUR 13,000. It is now being investigated whether there may be usable recordings despite the damage to the video system.

Unknown perpetrators entered the premises of the photovoltaic park in Bürstadt/Hesse through the previously damaged fence and cut countless insulated cables in the further course.

Thieves have removed a complete solar roof installation with 96 solar panels in a nocturnal action in Bad Deutsch-Altenbrug/Lower Austria.

It is assumed that the crime was very well planned. The damage amounts to approx. 20,000 EUR

Unknown perpetrators gained access to the photovoltaic plant by forcing open a side entrance gate locked with a security chain. They then unscrewed a total of 64 inverters and transported them away. The damage amounts to 128,000 EUR.
