DP Renováveis has opened a new
wind farm in Galicia, Northern Spain,
increasing the company’s installed capacity
within the region, to 281MW. Muxia wind
farm comprises 34 wind turbines with 2MW
each, which makes for a total of 68MW of
installed power capacity – enough to supply
around 70,000 homes per year.
The opening of the wind farm was attended
by the President of the Autonomous
Community of Galicia, Alberto, Núñez Feijóo;
the Mayor of Muxia, Félix Porto; the CEO of
EDP Renováveis, João Manso Neto; and the
Chief Executive of EDP Renováveis España,
Rocío Sicre.
With this new investment, EDP Renováveis’
installed capacity in Galicia now accounts
for more than 10% of the company’s
operation in Spain. The company’s overall
installed capacity in the country amounts
to 2312MW.

rina Solar Limited (‘Trina Solar’ or the
‘company’), a leading total solutions
provider for solar energy, has announced
that it will provide 190 megawatts of its
integrated photovoltaic (PV) solution,
TrinaPro, to Cobra for a large solar park
in Spain.
ACS Group and its subsidiary Cobra,
specialising in turnkey energetic
infrastructures, are building this EPC
project in Alcazar, Ciudad Real province
(Spain), with a total power capacity of
190MW. The project is expected to be
completed by the end of 2019 and is
set to become the first of many TrinaPro
projects in Europe.
Trina Solar will supply its integrated
TrinaPro PV solution consisting
of 560,000 units of TSM-PE14H
multicrystalline half-cut cell modules, as
well as the corresponding 6,206 single-
axis tracker units. The high-efficiency
modules will be mounted on Trina Solar’s
www.intelligentcio.com
single-axis tracking system, which allows
the modules to follow the sun at optimum
angles, thus receiving maximum sunlight
and generating up to a 25% additional
power in stable conditions.
Once in full operation, Muxia wind farm
will allow the company to inject clean
energy into the grid, which will prevent
the emission of over 4 million tonnes of
CO2 into the atmosphere over the 30-year
concession period.
TrinaPro is the first PV solution with an
optimised combination of Trina Solar’s
industry leading solar modules and
state-of-the-art solar tracker systems.
As a value-added solution, TrinaPro is
optimally engineered with premium
components and system integration. It is
one of the most reliable solutions in the
solar industry for high-energy yields.
De la Vina added: “By harnessing the
power of data and optimising the design
of the entire system, we further increase
overall efficiency. TrinaPro can boost
system power output by up to 30%. We
are proud that Trina Solar has evolved
from a module supplier to a value-added
solutions provider, bringing greater value
to our customers.”
