ReneSola Ltd will join the consortium that will develop a large-scale ground-mounted solar plant in the south of France. The plant is expected to produce 46 GWh, and supply electricity to approximately 10,000 households per year.
The consortium, led by Tenergie, will develop the power plant covering 30 hectares of leased land in the town of Aups. The plant will be owned by an entity, which in turn will be owned by the IPP, the Municipality of Aups. Local stakeholders and the individuals that participate in crowdfunding are deeply involved in the project conception phase.
The project of this size and design would typically have a capacity of approximately 30 MW. Actual capacity will be subject to additional authorizations, such as permits needed for final project design.
