The company ZML Developers submitted for authorization its proposal for the construction and operation of the “Álvaro Obregón Photovoltaic Project”, a large-scale solar park in the municipality of La Paz, to the SEMARNAT (Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources for environmental assessment), to determine its viability and mitigate possible impacts on the local ecosystem.
The project will include 162,000 solar panels, 300 converters, A 115 kV or 230 kV step-up substation, and a 0.5 km overhead power line
The project will be on two leased plots, totaling 517 ha. However, only 254.9 hectares of the plots will be used, while the rest of the property will remain in its current state.
What is the total solar generating capacity in kWh? What about expected annual generation, since solar doesn’t operate at peak capacity very often?
It would be nice to know the location of this operation besides just La Paz. It would be nice if it was near EL Centenario so they can not build any more houses near me !
