Endesa X finishes solar array for Balearic Islands govt

• Endesa X, the energy services unit of Spanish utility Endesa SA (BME: ELE), has actually developed a 976-kWp self-consumption solar photovoltaic (PV) system in Spain in support of the Balearic Islands government.

With an overall of 2,750 photovoltaic panels, the solar array was improved the canopies of the car park of the Mateu Orfila hospital, the business announced last week.

Treatment a location of 15,000 sq m (161,458 sq ft), Endesa estimates the PV system will be capable of producing adequate clean power to fulfill around 20% of the hospital's energy needs.

Over the course of one year, the solar array should be capable of generating some 1,214 MWh, enough to offset 932 tonnes of co2 (CO2) emissions each year.

Endesa X noted that the solar installation has actually been developed after being secured in a tender called by the city government.
