Enel Green Power España (EGPE) has acquired a photovoltaic portfolio of 519 MW from the Spanish developer Arena Power. The portfolio includes 11 projects being developed in the province of Huelva. Construction is expected to begin in 2022 and operations in 2024. EGPE has also recently begun work on its first solar park in San Antonio, in the city of Huelva, Spain, with 30 MW of capacity and investment of €18 million, creating 100 jobs during the construction period.
The 11 projects forming this cluster are on six sites in the province of Huelva: Palma del Condado, Gibraleón, Trigueros, San Juan del Puerto, Beas and Niebla. All of them will evacuate the power generated, and have a capacity to supply electricity to approximately 305 000 homes by a single transmission line, which will be connected to the Palos substation. This substation is located in the Huelva Industrial Park, one of the largest energy-consuming industrial centres in Spain.
