Ten Romanian men have been arrested in Germany on suspicion of stealing copper cables from solar parks in Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg. Authorities estimate the value of the stolen cables exceeds €100,000, but total damages to the solar installations are estimated to be over €1 million. The thefts have caused significant disruption to the operation of the solar farms. German authorities report the suspects systematically targeted the parks to steal the valuable copper wiring. Investigations are ongoing to determine the full extent of the damage and recover the stolen materials. The arrests follow a coordinated operation by German police.
