Photovoltaic farms are regularly springing up all over the world bringing real profits and energy independence, with no negative environmental consequences. There is a growing interest in smaller and larger solar power plants, which are becoming an excellent investment for the entrepreneurs.
In August 2022, the largest photovoltaic farm in Europe was commissioned in Spain! Its name is Francisco Pizarro and it is located in the province of Cáceres. The plant consists of as many as 1.5 million PV modules, has an impressive capacity of 590 MWp and covers an area of 13 square kilometers!
The energy produced by Francisco Pizarro will be used by large corporations to meet 100% of the energy needs of their factories, research centers or offices.
Around 1,500 people worked on the construction of the farm, most of whom were local residents. The bigger the construction is, the bigger are the costs – and this was no different in this case. The whole project cost around €300 million!
