 Renewables in Spain: TotalEnergies Inaugurates its Largest Solar Field in Europe

TotalEnergies inaugurates 263 MW of solar projects in Spain near Sevilla. This solar field is TotalEnergies’ largest in Europe. It is producing renewable electricity for over 150,000 Spanish households.

TotalEnergies inaugurates its largest solar power plant cluster in Europe, near Sevilla in Spain. It consists of five solar projects with a total installed capacity of 263 MW. This solar field will produce 515 GWh per year of renewable electricity, equivalent to the consumption of over 150,000 Spanish households, and will avoid 245,000 tons of CO2 emissions per year. Most of the electricity produced will be sold through long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) and the rest will be sold on the wholesale market.

Declared of strategic interest by the Junta de Andalucia, the installation of the 400,000 bifacial solar panels with trackers has provided a significant economic boost to the local economy, involving 14 companies of which more than a half are Sevillian and generating 800 direct and indirect jobs.

“We warmly thank the Spanish authorities at both the regional and national levels for supporting this solar project that is contributing to Spain's ambition of 80% of renewables in its mix by 2030”, stated Olivier Jouny, Senior Vice President Renewables at TotalEnergies. “With our 1,700 employees in Spain, we are building a competitive Integrated Power portfolio that combines renewables and flexible gas-fired power plants to deliver clean firm power to our customers. We are proud to be the 4th largest provider of electricity, gas, and related services in Spain, where we have more than 2 million residential and professional customers”.
