Diverxia Infrastructure and CEE Group inaugurate the 50MW Antilia Solar Photovoltaic Plant in Ciudad Real

Antilia Solar

Diverxia Infrastructure and CEE Group have inaugurated the Antilia Solar Photovoltaic Plant, bringing to completion the 50MW project that the Valencian company has developed and built and sold a few months ago to the German fund participated by the Brookfield Group.  

At the inauguration ceremony, held on July 18, the company’s CEO, José Luis Fayos, accompanied by the Managing Director, Paola Casseres, and part of the team that led the project throughout its development and execution, toured the 83 hectares occupied by the plant together with CEE Group. 

The project, located in Puertollano (Ciudad Real), has an installation of 91,920 modules, 1,534 structures and 240 inverters. A structure that will enable the production of 103,494 MWh of clean energy each year, equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of 25,000 homes.  

In this way, Antilia Solar will avoid the emission of 42,000 tons of CO2 into the atmosphere each year, adding efforts in the process of decarbonization of our country.    

  

Excellence and reliability

Jose Luis Fayos, CEO of the company, highlighted that “Antilia Solar is one more step in the line of work that Diverxia Infrastructure is carrying out and that allows us to continue consolidating ourselves as a first level company in the development of large renewable projects at a global level”. 

“Our presence in the Spanish market continues to grow, as well as in the rest of Europe and the Americas. In fact, this photovoltaic plant, the first to be inaugurated in Castilla La Mancha in 2023, will be followed by new large-scale projects that we will soon be able to announce,” concluded the CEO.  

For her part, the Managing Director thanked “the trust that CEE has placed in us to be able to carry out this project, the first to be carried out in Spain. As always, we have applied our highest standards to ensure the maximum quality of the project and from Diverxia we are very proud of the result after months of hard work”.  

In this sense, Casseres also highlighted the importance of “having an excellent team, whose experience and flexibility allow us to ensure the execution of large-scale projects all over the world, adapting to the specific needs and characteristics of each new challenge”.

Diverxia H2 discusses the reality of the green hydrogen market at the Overfly Forum

Foro sobre el mercado del hidrógeno verde en España.

Green hydrogen will play a central role in the decarbonization of the Spanish economy. This has been one of the main aspects that Diverxia H2 has analyzed during its participation in the Overfly Forum 2023, organized by Grupo Álava.  

The forum, which took place on June 21 and 22 in Madrid, brought together relevant actors in the field of renewable energies and H2. Raúl Marqués, H2 Engineer of Diverxia H2, was in charge of analyzing the situation of the Spanish market during the panel “Spain as a world power in green H2“.  

Together with him, Emilio Nieto from the National Hydrogen Center (CNH2), Íñigo Ortega from Tecnalia and Alejandro Blando from Hiperbaric participated in the round table.   

The meeting has also been broadcast live and can be followed in streaming through Youtube and Linkedin.

Green H2 and decarbonization  

During the intervention of Diverxia H2, the current Spanish situation in terms of mobility and energy has been analyzed. In Spain, road transport represents about 95% of energy consumption in the mobility sector. A sector which, in turn, accounts for 33% of national final energy consumption.  

A context that, as Marqués pointed out, implies that “the decarbonization of the economy requires the development of new heavy mobility solutions. Solutions based on technologies and integral renewable hydrogen projects”.  

But for this, it is necessary to promote “the deployment of both infrastructures and vehicles to achieve a more sustainable long-distance logistics transport”.  

An interesting debate that has shown the lines of work to follow to continue promoting the use of green H2 as an energy vector.

alternative-energy

The Spanish company Diverxia Infrastructure has announced the obtention of two projects in the Tranche one of the public tender organized by the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA), which took place last August in Puerto Rico. 73Mw of capacity is expected to be installed between two projects located in Cabo Rojo and Mayaguez.

Diverxia Infrastructure, a leading company in renewable projects, has been awarded in the Tranche 1 of Energy Resources Auction in Puerto Rico in August. Jointly with Enersys Solar (a local company) have formed a consortium that have been awarded with two projects located in the regions of Cabo Rojo and Mayaguez. Their construction is expected to start next year.

With these projects, which COD is expected to take place in 2025, the company aims to collaborate with the electrical recovery of Puerto Rico, providing steadiness to the island electric network. Renewable Resources represent less than 4% of the total electric capacity of the country. With this auction, the government aims to increase the renewable energy up to 16% by 2024. The objective of the authorities is to achieve a 100% of renewable energy in 2050.

Once Tranche 1 has concluded, Diverxia is already preparing a bid for the Tranche 2, which also intends to adjudge 1.000Mw of renewable generation, in addition to long-term energy storage.

Green light to Diverxia for the construction of Huéneja Photovoltaic Complex

Diverxia Infrastructure obtains the necessary administrative authorizations for the construction of Huéneja Photovoltaic Complex. The Regional Government of Andalusia granted the prior administrative and construction authorization and the Public Utility Declaration to the photovoltaic project the company is developing in this Autonomous Community.

On the 1st of July, the Regional Government of Andalusia gave the company the green light to start the construction of these three photovoltaic projects which will shape Huéneja Photovoltaic Complex. Once grid-connected in November 2021, the project in the province of Granada will have a total power of 150 MW, the equivalent of the annual consumption of 92,000 Spanish households.

More than €100 million will be invested in the construction of this large photovoltaic complex by Diverxia Infrastructure. During the construction phase, it will create more than 180 direct jobs, filled by mostly local workers. The construction phase will be launched in mid-October this year and the company is currently immersed in the process of procuring the main equipment.

Besides the development and the construction of this 150 MW project, Diverxia Infrastructure is developing similar projects in Málaga, Puertollano, Zaragoza, Cuenca and other large photovoltaic installations in Latin America.

Solar Potential in Mexico

Potencial-solar-en-México

Mexico could be one of the world powers involved in renewable energy generation of thanks to its privileged location where solar radiation has a higher density reaching 5.8kWh/m2. However, just 14% of the energy consumed in the country comes from renewable sources.
This is why the National Infrastructure Plan 2014-2018 will allocate $320,000 million dollars to develop energy projects allowing Mexico to become a powerhouse in renewable energy.
