Voltalia (Euronext Paris, ISIN code:
FR0011995588), an international player in renewable energy,
announces the start of construction of a 19.7-megawatt solar
project in Colombia
Located in the Tolima region, Los Venados
project will be the first in Colombia for Voltalia. With a total
capacity of 19.7 megawatts, powered by more than
33,000 solar panels, the project is backed by a 15-year
contract that will be dedicated to serve private sector buyers. It
will cover the annual electricity consumption of more than
40,000 inhabitants avoiding the emission of around
23,000 tons of CO2 per year. Commissioning is
scheduled for the first quarter of 2026.
Voltalia has been active in Colombia since 2019,
developing a pipeline of over 350 megawatts. The country’s
renewable energy landscape is rapidly evolving, with significant
opportunities for growth in solar and wind energy.
Robert Klein, CEO of Voltalia, stated: “We
are proud to launch the construction of our first project in
Colombia. We see potential in this market and are excited to
explore new partnerships and projects, developed from greenfield
opportunities in the geography”.
