Abengoa attended the connection of the 62MW to the grid from the photovoltaic plant at the Cerro Dominador solar complex. The project is owned by EIG Global Energy Partners and is being developed by Abengoa.
The photovoltaic plant, which will have 392,000 panels to catch the sun's energy and send it directly to the grid, is scheduled to become completely operational by the end of this year.
The entire project will prevent the emission of 870,000 tons of CO2 each year, thereby meeting the energy demand of both the population and the industry thanks to a combination of both technologies.
