Planea Energía, a renewable energy generation company, has launched three photovoltaic solar plants with a total capacity of 141.094 megawatts (MW), located in the town of Belinchón (Cuenca) in Castilla-La Mancha. These plants are accompanied by significant environmental measures aimed at supporting the local fauna and flora.

The three photovoltaic plants cover a total area of 235.58 hectares, consisting of 239,280 panels. After the completion of construction works, which lasted for 8 months, this facility is already injecting clean energy into the grid, a production that will prevent the emission of around 60,000 tons of CO2 into the atmosphere each year.

Planea Energía consolidates its position in the EPC business

The entire process of permitting, design, engineering, construction, as well as commissioning, operation, and maintenance has been carried out by Planea Energía, further solidifying its presence in the EPC (“Engineering, Procurement & Construction”), operation, and O&M sectors of large photovoltaic plants. In the last three years alone, it has completed projects with a total capacity of more than 300 MW, allowing the company to offer solutions across the entire value chain.

The Albacete-based company also has two other active photovoltaic projects in Bonete (Albacete) and Manzanares (Ciudad Real), which currently produce more than 230 GWh annually.

Furthermore, Planea Energía has several projects in development and construction totaling 400 MW, along with a broad portfolio of renewable energy plants in advanced stages of development, mainly in Spain, the United States, and France. Additionally, Planea Energía is involved in various renewable hydrogen production projects and battery hybridization initiatives in Spain.

Environmental measures and actions

Planea Energía is aware of the need to accompany the development of renewable installations with measures and actions that not only minimize impacts but also improve the surrounding environment. In this regard, the company has made a significant effort in the Belinchón project with relevant initiatives.
