Development of a major-scale 200 MW solar farm planned by PPC Renewables in Ptolemaida, northern Greece, a project budgeted at EUR110 million (US$129.5 million), is expected to begin in approximately one month.
A series of pre-construction procedures are expected to be completed within the next four weeks, enabling the Mytilineos Group’s METKA EGN, the project’s contractor, to begin work on this project. It represents the biggest part of a 230 MW solar energy project cluster planned by PPC Renewables.
A first 15 MW cluster has already been completed, while a second section representing an equivalent capacity is now being developed and should be ready by autumn.
