Said document details that the Regulatory Supervision Chamber of the National Markets and Competition Commission has issued favorable report, approved by the Board of Directors on February 7, 2017.
This installation will finally have 110,4 MW, will be built in the municipalities of Salteras and Guillena, in the province of Seville.
The overhead evacuation line (at 220 kV) has as origin of the 220/20 kV transformer substation of the photovoltaic installation, running its route to the 220 kV Salteras substation, owned by Red Eléctrica de España, and will have a length of just over 10 km. The Directorate General for Energy Policy and Mines has declared «of public utility" This line.
The company that will develop The project is the Spanish Ansasol, which it explains on its website (ansasol.de/en) «Has a signed lease option contract with a duration of 31 years, extendable for a period of 12 more years ».
The chosen location (Guillena) has an average annual horizontal irradiance (0º) of 1.805 kilowatt hours per square meter. Ansasol estimates a production of 177.000 megawatt hours per year, equivalent to 1.603 kilowatt hours per kilowatt peak.
