PPC Renewables has announced the start of the construction of an 80 MW solar power plant, in the “Akrini” location of Kozani, in exhausted lignite mines of ΔEH.
In its construction, high performance bifacial photovoltaic panels will be used, on a stable support system. Given the rich solar potential of the area, the estimated annual output of the station is estimated to reach 127 GWh per year. With its operation, the new station is expected to prevent CO2 emissions of the order of 73,500 tons annually.
As the company reports, PPC Renewables is currently constructing new RES projects in Ptolemaida with a total capacity of 800MW. These include, in addition to the “Akrine” project, the iconic photovoltaic project “PTC Ptolemaida Mine” with a capacity of 550MW, which is one of the largest photovoltaic projects in Europe. With their completion, the total installed RES capacity (excluding large hydroelectric plants) of the PPC Group will reach 2,300MW.
“PPC Group is creating the foundations to lead the energy transformation in the country. Today, with a total installed capacity of more than 1,500 MW (excluding the large hydroelectric plants) and its ambitious investment plan, it has positioned itself dynamically in the area of RES”, the announcement emphasizes.
