BNZ, an independent power producer focused on Southern Europe, has inaugurated two solar photovoltaic plants with a total capacity of 74 MW in Cadiz province, southern Spain. The Alya and Alamak solar farms, located in Alcala de los Gazules, are the first facilities opened by BNZ in Spain.

The company's expansion in the region reflects the growing trend towards renewable energy sources and the increasing investment in solar power projects.
