The energy company Repsol has started construction works on its first solar park, facility located in the municipality of Manzanares in Spain called Kappa. The plant will have a total installed power of 126 megawatts (MW) and will involve an investment of €100m. Kappa, which will have three independent plants with installed capacities of 45 MW, 45 MW and 36 MW, will supply electricity to some 183,000 people. Its renewable generation, which is scheduled to start early next year, will prevent the emission of more than 250,000 tons of CO2 per year. It’s one of seven renewable projects that Repsol has underway on the Iberian peninsula and the second to start in Spain.
