Iberdrola yesterday began work on the 13.51 megawatt (MW) Conde photovoltaic plant, located in Palmela (Portugal), with a total area of almost 20 hectares, the company said in a statement.

 

“Once operational, the plant will produce 20 GWh/year, equivalent to the average supply of 5,000 homes, and will avoid the emission of some 6,000 tonnes of CO2 per year,” explained Iberdrola.

 

The Conde plant is one of four photovoltaic plants that Iberdrola is developing in the Setúbal district, awarded in the 2019 photovoltaic auction, the others being Algeruz II (27.35 MW), Alcochete I (32.89 MW) and Alcochete II (12.72 MW). Once they are all in operation, “they will avoid the emission of 56,000 tonnes of CO2 per year”.

 

The foundation stone for the Conde photovoltaic plant was laid by Renata Rodrigues, on behalf of Iberdrola Renewables Portugal, and Álvaro Manuel Balseiro Amaro, mayor of Palmela.

 

The company remarked, in its statement, the strong commitment it has with Portugal, underlining that it serves a commercial portfolio of more than 870,000 supply points, with 92 megawatts of wind power in operation and is implementing the Támega gigabattery, one of the largest pumping projects in Europe.

 

“In 2021, the company has allocated more than €4.3 billion to investments in renewable energies. This increased investment has enabled the group to install 3,500 new renewable megawatts (MW) in the last 12 months and reach 38,000 MW of renewable capacity worldwide. Construction capacity exceeds 7,800 MW, of which 2,600 MW is offshore wind power,” Iberdrola added.
