Spain's Grenergy opens up 37-MWp solar farm complex in Colombia

• Spanish renewables firm Grenergy Renovables SL (BME: GRE) on Friday inaugurated a 30-MW/37-MWp solar power complex in the department of Tolima, central-west Colombia.

It stated it had invested some EUR 28 million (USD 30.1 m) in the project.

The complex is made up of 3 solar farms-- Cerritos, La Medina and Los Caballeros-- each of 9.9 MW. With each other, the plants will generate around 69 GWh of electrical power per year.

To monetise the possessions, Grenergy claimed it had authorized a long-term off-take agreement with Colombian power firm Celsia.

The Spanish renewables developer claims it runs 72 MW of solar farms in Colombia and has more than 1 GW of projects in development.
