Statkraft, Baywa sign PPA for 50 MWp Don Rodrigo 2 solar project in Spain

BayWa r.e. and Statkraft have signed a 12-year power purchase agreement for the Don Rodrigo 2 solar park project.

The new 50 MWp plant is situated on 162 hectares near Seville, in the south of Spain. It is less than 3 km away from the Don Rodrigo solar park which was the first subsidy-free utility-scale PV plant in Europe.

Less than a year after completing Don Rodrigo, BayWa r.e. has begun construction of Don Rodrigo 2. The plant is expected to be completed end of the year. It will generate approximately 100 GWh of solar power every year equivalent to the annual consumption of around 30,000 Spanish households.
