The new plant will produce 64 GWh per year, equivalent to supplying 15,990 homes and 48,000 people.
Create between 40 and 90 workers and once in operation will generate 35 permanent jobs during the life of the plant, which is estimated at about 35 years.
Agreement reached with the Spanish government says the leadership in renewable energy
The implementation of wind and solar in stages over the coming years to ensure sustainable growth and continued in both sectors.
At the end of next year, Spain will have 20,155 MW thermal and 861 MW in operation, 15% above the target set in the Renewable Energies Plan (PER) 2005-2010
The government delegate in Murcia, Rafael González Tovar, with Mayor Calasparra, Jesus Navarro and company representative Prointec - Novatec Solar Spain, SL, Ignacio Aycart, announced this morning the Registration of earmarking special regime Ministry of Industry, a new 30 MW solar thermal plant in Calasparra.
The Region will also have three wind farms that will produce 109.7 MW.
The thermal plant is the second plant assigned to this company in this town, called Puerto Errado 1 (PE1) and Puerto Errado 2 (SP2), the first of which was inaugurated last March, with a capacity of 1.4 MW.
The start of construction of PE2 is scheduled for March 2010 and will have a period of 24 months.
During this process involved between 40 and 90 workers and once in operation will generate 35 permanent jobs during the life of the plant, which is estimated at about 35 years.
In addition, the company has a factory Novatec modules for installation flat mirrors in the solar fields using a single linear Fresnel collector.
Therefore provides a power boiler that can be used in solar power plants, desalination plants and industrial processes.
This boiler can be integrated with biomass plants or hybrid to save fuel in conventional power plants.
The new plant will produce 64 GWh per year, equivalent to supplying 15,990 homes and 48,000 people.
Besides a saving of 21,300 and 57,600 tons.
regarding CO ² emitted by burning oil and coal respectively, and a saving of 7,900 and 19,200 tons.
consumption of oil and coal in each case.
Three new wind farms
The Murcia region also have three new wind farms that have been included in the pre-registration scheme.
One of them, located in the Sierra de Lacera (Yecla) may be operated from now and will produce 37.6 MW.
The remaining two are located in the Sierra de las Cabras and Loma de la Tella, both in Jumilla, will become operational from January 1, 2011 and will produce a total of 72.1 MW.
In total, the three plants will produce a total of 109.7 MW.
A calendar to ensure the sustainable development of
The Government delegate recalled that a proposal by the Minister of Industry, Tourism and Trade Miguel Sebastian, the Council of Ministers adopted on 13 November last year an agreement that allows the implementation in stages over the next three years of wind with a capacity of 6,000 MW thermal power plant and other 2,440 MW.
He noted that the government understands that the best way to ensure the development of renewable energy, so necessary in a country with a strong external dependence on energy as ours, is to ensure that progress is made on a continuous and orderly to through legislation to ensure its development in a reasonable and affordable.
Therefore, the Agreement provides for the orderly entry in the coming years the power of wind and solar thermal technologies registered in the Register of earmarking special regime created by Royal Decree Law 6 / 2009.
In the same set an average annual installation of renewable energy from 3,300 MW in the current legislature, an amount that is significantly higher compared with the average of 1,511 MW in the 2000-2003 legislature, or 2,295 MW by 2004 Legislature -2007.
It will also enable the implementation from 2009 to late 2010 of more than 3,700 MW and 850 MW thermal.
With the entry of these powers, at the end of next year, Spain will have 20,155 MW thermal and 861 MW in operation.
These data show that "the law reaffirms the government commitment to renewable energy and ensures the leadership of Spain in the field of clean energy, which will occupy from now, the country's undisputed world leader in solar energy," he stated.
Positive consequences for the sector
The Government's agreement allows developers of facilities have a foreseeable horizon over the next three years, allowing them to do their business in time schedules.
It also introduces the necessary certainty for developers and the industry associated with these important sectors of renewable energy, while streamlining the annual increase in cost of electricity for consumers is the implementation of these facilities.
The entry into operation of these facilities will involve the maintenance and development of renewable industrial use and associated with significant investments over the next few years, constituting the renewables sector one of the main vectors of output current economic climate.
Similarly, is an important step to implement the commitments made by our country to the European Union on energy production from renewable sources by 2020, which will materialize in the next Renewable Energy Plan 2011-2020, currently development.
