Kyocera solar modules supplied to two newly completed large-scale solar power plants in Spain

(18/12/2009)

Avanzalia is a Spanish renewable energy company and one of the leaders in promoting, constructing and capitalizing on large-scale solar power plants in Spain. Recently, Avanzalia has inaugurated two new solar power plants in the Castile-La Mancha region of central Spain: Dulcinea in Cuenca, and Don Quijote in Ciudad Real.

Kyocera Corporation has supplied roughly 190,000 solar modules, equivalent to approximately 40 megawatts (MW), for the two newly completed large-scale solar power plants in Spain.

Kyocera supplies its high-efficiency multicrystalline solar modules to Avanzalia. Kyocera modules, equal to 39.3MW, have been installed and are currently operating, providing clean energy from the power of the sun.

Kyocera was selected for these projects due to the high conversion efficiency of its multicrystalline cells, the long-term reliability of its modules, and the company's ability to provide a stable supply in large quantities. The power generated from these two solar plants combined provides enough electricity for approximately 17,700 average households in Spain, with the solar modules covering a total area of 338,581m2.
