Solarpack, Bruc Iberia commission 100 MW solar PV project in Alvarado-La Risca

Bruc Iberia Energy Investment Partners and Solarpack Corporación Tecnológica have opened a 100-MW PV plant in Alvarado-La Risca, Badajoz (Extremadura, Spain).

The new PV plant, which covers an area of 150 hectares, will save 53,000 tons of CO2 emissions a year and will provide enough energy to supply 40,000 homes. The sale of energy from the plant is backed by a long-term power purchase agreement.

Bruc Iberia Energy Partners bought the Alvarado plant from Solarpack in November 2019. It was the firm’s first investment in Spain.
