Iberdrola has entrusted Ingeteam with the supply and commissioning of the largest solar power plant in Europe to date. It is the Francisco Pizarro solar plant, located in Cáceres, which reflects Iberdrola's commitment to providing its projects with local technology.
With an installed capacity of more than 590 MW, the solar power plant is already in operation and generating enough energy to power 334,400 households a year.
Ingeteam provided its technology via the supply of 92 power stations, 312 solar inverters, the power plant controller (PPC), and electricity substation and solar power plant connection works, thanks to the expertise of its team of commissioning technicians.
Jesús Echarte, commercial director of Ingeteam's solar power business, emphasised that “this project is very important for Ingeteam, as it has further strengthened our long-standing and very good commercial relationship with Iberdrola. It has also allowed us to play the role we like best: that of a technology partner, where we accompany the customer in all phases of project development.
About Ingeteam
We are Ingeteam, a team of more than 4,000 people present in 24 countries, convinced that there is a different way to generate, transport, store and consume energy more efficiently and sustainably, on which we will be focussing all our efforts in the coming years. The energy transition is no longer the future, it is our present, and to meet this challenge we created “The Real Dream Team” movement, which is comprised of heroes and heroines just like you, who share our dream of a world with clean energy production. And how will we achieve this? By electrifying society innovatively using our specialist cutting-edge electrical energy conversion technology, and our more than 80 years of experience in providing creative solutions to specific problems.
We wish to consolidate our position as a leader in renewable generation (wind, solar, hydroelectric and green hydrogen), in storage, the intelligent transport network and the efficient and clean consumption of electrical energy via our electric vehicle chargers, converters and motors for the railway, marine, steel, mining and water sectors.
We have already delivered 25 GW of solar PV capacity with our solar inverters and more than 54 GW of Indar inverters and generators to the wind industry. We have installed 10.5 GW in the hydropower sector with our Indar generators and more than 12,000 Indar submersible pumps worldwide. More than 6,000 electrical substations are automated with our equipment. We have also accumulated 1.6 GWh in electrical storage facilities and are a world leader in the provision of operation and maintenance services at renewable energy plants, with more than 18 GW of maintained capacity.
In terms of efficient consumption, it is worth noting that over 12,500 electric vehicle chargers, 700 electric trains, and more than 600 electric ships have been equipped with our technology and equipment, in addition to the development of hybrid naval propulsion systems.
At Ingeteam we are doers, we are capable of providing creative responses to specific and complex problems and are prepared for the transition towards a world of clean energy production via the electrification of society. Why not join The Real Dream Team?
