Spain headquartered renewable energy leader Iberdrola has obtained the Environmental Impact Statement for the construction of a new 375 MW photovoltaic project in the town of Cedillo in Cáceres. This new plant will have sufficient capacity to supply 178,000 homes with clean energy, more than the population of a city like Badajoz, and will prevent the emission of 77,000 tonnes of CO2 per year.The installation will have more than 576,000 bifacial photovoltaic modules that allow for higher production, as it has two light-sensitive surfaces. In this way, it will be able to produce more than 582,400 MWh of indigenous green energy per year, an amount that would have required more than 97 million cubic metres of gas to be generated by a combined cycle.Its construction will also boost the supply chain related to the energy transition with the participation of local suppliers such as Faramax, from Malpartida de Plasencia, which will provide the transformers.The towers of the evacuation power line will be provided by IMEDEXSA, of Casar de Cáceres.
