  • RWE AG shines bright in Spain with its largest solar project yet, the Gazules complex. Expanding rapidly, RWE is a leader in sustainable energy solutions.

German energy group RWE AG has completed its largest solar project in Spain by commissioning the 92-MWac Gazules solar photovoltaic power complex in Cadiz province. The complex consists of two solar farms, Gazules 1 and Gazules 2, with a capacity of 46 MWac each, featuring approximately 240,000 bifacial modules installed on 140 hectares of land. Gazules injected first power into the grid in February and became fully operational in April after a gradual commissioning process.

RWE has significantly expanded its solar business in Spain, installing over 550,000 solar modules on the Iberian Peninsula and increasing its capacity to 300 megawatts. The company currently operates seven large-scale solar farms in Spain and Portugal, along with 500 MW of onshore wind power capacity. Additionally, RWE has partnered with Spanish sustainable infrastructure and mobility operator Ferrovial SE to develop floating wind projects in Spain's waters.
