The Conde solar power plant in Portugal, with a future photovoltaic capacity of 187MW, benefits from Iberdrola’s deployment.

A portfolio of solar projects

With Conde, Iberdrola has been committed to renewable energies, including photovoltaics, for over 20 years. Iberdrola has just completed the construction of the Conde plant, with a capacity of 13.5MW. The solar power plant will cover the annual consumption of 5000 households.

In addition, Conde will avoid the emission of 6,000 tons of CO2 per year thanks to the plant’s 25,000 solar modules. The Spanish company already has a photovoltaic plant in operation in Portugal. It is the Algeruz II plant in the Setubal district, with a capacity of 27MW.

Spearheading the energy transition, it has 39,000MW of installed renewable capacity worldwide. Iberdrola is also present in Portugal in the wind power sector, representing 92MW of energy. These three wind farms represent the energy needed for 35,000 homes.

A long-standing presence

In addition to Conde, Iberdrola aims to become one of the main promoters of solar photovoltaic energy in Portugal. It has a large portfolio to develop 2000MW of photovoltaic energy in different regions of the country. Currently, the Alcochete I and II solar plants are under construction.

These parks will be able to supply 45.6MW of photovoltaic energy thanks to their bifacial solar modules. These panels increase energy production by up to 30% and reduce the average cost of electricity by 16%. Alcochete I and II have a tracking system allowing the modules to move according to the trajectory of the sun.

Iberdrola also plans to build a wind power complex linked to the Alto Tâmega hydroelectric plant. This will transform the facility into a hybrid power plant representing 400MW of installed capacity. This project would be one of the largest wind power projects in Portugal.
