The photovoltaic plant Energía Limpia de La Laguna has been completed and connected to the electrical grid, after the construction works conducted by GRS began at the end of 2017. With a capacity of 35.49 MWp, the yearly energy generated by this plant is expected to amount to the electricity consumption of approximately 25,000 homes, and its clean energy will prevent the yearly carbon dioxide emission to the atmosphere of more than 50.000 tonnes.

GRS and Balam Fund signed an EPC (turnkey) contract in 2017 to construct the Energía Limpia de La Laguna plant in the north of Mexico, near the city of Tlahualilo de Zaragoza (in the eastern edge of the Durango state).

108,314 polycrystalline photovoltaic modules have been used for this project, mounted on 98 multi-row single axis solar trackers. The plant is authorized under a self-sufficiency scheme, and the energy produced will be bought through a long-term power purchase agreement by Farmacias del Ahorro.
