Sonnedix has inaugurated its 150 MW Betierra solar project in Castilla-La Mancha, Cuenca, in east-central Spain. The project consists of three 50 MW solar plants with shared interconnection infrastructure, a first for a project of this scale in Sonnedix’s Spanish portfolio.
Since achieving commercial operation in September 2024, the project is now generating nearly 300,000 MWh of clean electricity annually, equivalent to powering over 71,0001 households and avoiding over 107,000 metric tonnes of CO2 equivalent per year. The renewable energy will be supplied to Equinix under a 10-year Purchase Power Agreement (PPA) signed in May 2023.
Betierra is part of a larger 300 MW portfolio acquired in the development stage from RIC Energy in 2021, with the remaining 150 MW in the late development stage.
