Enel Green Power Espana, the renewables device of Spanish power utility Endesa SA (BME: ELE), has started procedures of its 14.96-MW photovoltaic (PV) park in the town of Alcudia, on Spain's Mallorca island.

The Portuguese site combines an 8MW solar farm with an 11MW wind park

Global experts on solar power highly urge a commitment to the continued development of photovoltaic (PV) production and release to power the world, arguing that lowballing projections for PV growth while waiting for an agreement on various other energy paths or the emergence of technical final miracles "is no longer an alternative."

Sojitz and Eneos are powering Australia with the launch of the 204MW Edenvale Solar Park. The largest solar power plant in Australia run by Japanese investors, this marks the second large solar power plant the two have jointly invested in as part of their commitment to reducing their reliance on fossil fuels.

BHEL has issued a tender, inviting proposals for eligible vendors for offering MSE Insurance for a 100 MW solar plant for GSECL.

McDonald's India (North & East) has commissioned Delhi's largest solar power plant in Najafgarh with a capacity of 3.2MW. It is expected to reduce CO2 emissions by 3,822 tonnes annually and promote biofuel & biodiesel for ecological sustainability.

The project will operate at a profit in part thanks to an emissions plan introduced by the province of Alberta on January 1. The plant will have the ability to sell its carbon certificates.

Bosnia's Swisslion Trebinje, part of Serbia-based confectionary team Swisslion Takovo, will develop a 5 MW photovoltaic (PV) nuclear power plant in the town of Trebinje, Bosnian media reported.

The project is in Giuncaggio, in the northeastern part of the French island, and was built with Tesla Powerpack batteries, a Nidec power management system and a new power management device from the project’s developer Corsica Sole.

The 6.5 MW solar project will be constructed with PV modules supplied by Croatian manufacturer Solvis d.o.o.

A consortium that is establishing Saudi Arabia's largest solar project has gotten to economic close for the plant and has protected the backing of state oil producer Saudi Aramco.

German solar developer Belectric will certainly build a 16.8-MWp floating solar (PV) plant in north Israel for S'energy and also water utility Carmel shore waters.
