Cepsa will add three new renewable energy projects in Castilla-La Mancha. The company will develop three photovoltaic plants in the towns of Campo de Criptana and Arenales de San Gregorio (Ciudad Real), with an estimated capacity of 400 megawatts. The installation of these solar plants will involve an investment of more than 280 million euros and their construction, which will start at the beginning of 2025, is expected to generate more than 420 jobs, reaching nearly 700 jobs in the peak phases of their development.Once in operation, these projects will produce an estimated annual energy output of 840 GWh, which is equivalent to the consumption of approximately 250,000 households for a year, i.e., nearly one third of the domestic consumption of Castilla-La Mancha. Furthermore, the production of this renewable energy will avoid the annual emission of 336,000 tons of CO2.Within the framework of these developments, the Town Councils of Arenales de San Gregorio and Campo de Criptana have signed agreements with Cepsa to join the “Sumamos Energías” program, which the company promotes to guarantee the integration of renewable projects in the local environment, as well as to involve the different social agents, involve the citizens and promote collaboration with the administrations.Cepsa is developing a portfolio of renewable energies to sustainably supply the energy consumption of its industrial centers, especially for the production of green hydrogen, an energy vector in which Cepsa wants to be a leader in this decade, for which it has launched the Andalusian Green Hydrogen Valley, the largest green hydrogen project in Europe.Renewable energies are defined within Cepsa’s 2030 Positive Motion strategy, with which the company aims to become a leader in sustainable mobility and energy in Spain and Portugal and a benchmark in the energy transition.
