Iberdrola has completed the construction in of the first hybrid wind and solar photovoltaic plant in Spain and is now immersed in the commissioning process.
This 74MW photovoltaic installation has more than 120,000 photovoltaic modules and is located in the Burgos municipalities of Revilla Vallejera, Villamedianilla and Vallejera to hybridise the existing 69 MW BaCa - Ballestas and Casetona - wind power complex. The company has allocated more than €40 million to the execution of this project, which combines wind and solar energy at a single site. The wind farm and the pv plant plants use the same grid connection point and share infrastructures, such as the substation and the evacuation line for the electricity produced.
