Name of the Project
Totana solar photovoltaic (PV) farm.

Location
Region of Murcia, Spain.

Client
Enel Green Power España.

Project Description
The project entails the construction of a 84.7 MW solar PV facility, which, once fully operational will comprise 248 000 PV modules and be able to generate about 150 GWh/y, avoiding the emission of about 105 000 t/y of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

The project is part of Enel’s programme to digitalise and automate engineering and construction activities. It will be the first site to use collaborative automation systems and robotics to support the construction team while building some sections of the facility, with benefits in terms of works’ safety and quality, such as increased accuracy and speed, in undertaking on-site activities.

The construction of the project will be based on Enel’s sustainable construction site model, incorporating the use of renewable power during construction through a PV system that will meet the power needs of the construction site, as well as implementing initiatives to involve the local population in construction.
