Full power for Garrido's new cluster in Portugal
Voltalia (Euronext Paris, ISIN code:
FR0011995588), an international player in renewable energies,
announces the full commissioning of its new Portuguese
cluster, Garrido, consisting of five solar
power plants with a total capacity of 50.6 megawatts.
The construction of the Garrido project cluster,
combining five power plants with a total capacity of 50.6
megawatts, was initiated in September 20221. It reached full
capacity after a gradual commissioning process that began in March
20232. The initial kilowatt-hours were generated from the Vale
Serrão site (2.4 megawatts), Pinhal Novo site (11.8
megawatts), and Alcochete site (23.8 megawatts). The remaining
capacity, including the Oliveira de Frades site (1.2 megawatts) and
Antuzede site (11.4 megawatts), has just been connected to the
grid.
The entire cluster's capacity is secured through
long-term Corporate Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs3), including
one with the industrial company BA Glass, a European leader in the
production of hollow glass for the beverage and agri-food sectors.
The companies consuming the produced decarbonized electricity will
contribute to avoiding the annual emission of 46,685 tonnes of CO2
into the atmosphere.
"We are delighted to announce the full capacity
of our Garrido cluster. Portugal is a pioneer in Europe, with a
significant share of renewable energies in its energy mix. I thank
all the teams for successfully delivering this cluster," says
Sébastien Clerc, CEO of Voltalia.
Next appointment: 1st half 2023 results,
on September 27th (before market-opening).
