Lapa solar park, Bahia, Brazil.

Client
Enel Green Power, through its subsidiary Enel Green Power Brasil Participações.

Project Description
The project involves the construction of a solar park comprising the 80 MW Bom Jesus da Lapa and the 78 MW Lapa solar parks.

On completion, the 158 MW park will be able to generate almost 340 GWh/y, enough to meet the yearly energy consumption needs of more than 16 000 Brazilian households, while avoiding the emission of about 190 000 t of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

The solar park will be supported by 20-year supply contracts that provide for the sale of specified volumes of energy generated by the plants to the Brazilian Chamber of Commercialisation of Electric Energy.

Value
Enel will be investing about $175-million.

Duration
The solar park is expected to enter into service in the second half of 2017.

Latest Developments
Construction on the project started in April.

Key Contracts and Suppliers
None stated.

On Budget and on Time?
