EKZ<\/a> 's Algibicos solar power plant near the southern Spanish city of Murcia started operations on Tuesday, according to a media release<\/a> . This means that the Zurich-based energy company's first large open-space solar power plant has gone online.<\/p>\n

On an area of 85 hectares, it will produce a little over 90 gigawatt hours of electricity per year. This corresponds to the annual consumption of more than 20,000 households. With over 300 days of fine weather, the area was one of the sunniest in all of Europe. In addition, the yield is increased by movable solar panels that are oriented towards the sun.<\/p>\n

"Compared to Swiss systems, around twice as much electrical energy can be generated," said Jean-Marc Degen, senior project manager at EKZ Renewables, in the press release. In addition, plants of this size are hardly feasible in Switzerland. The meanwhile low production costs and the sunny location enabled profitable operation, even without state feed-in tariffs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
