Con esta selección, se instalará una nueva potencia solar fotovoltaica de pequeña escala por un total de 5,1 MWp, que se suman a los 2,9 MWp ya instalados por el PROINGED en energía fotovoltaica, totalizando 8 MWp instalados. Se estima que estos parques tendrán una generación de energía limpia de 12 GWh/año que colaborará con el mejoramiento de la matriz energética provincial.

Cabe destacar que el período de adjudicación de la licitación se demoró –estaba previsto que se defina el lunes de la semana pasada- a causa de un largo proceso de evaluación técnica, económica-contable y jurídica que incluyó el análisis de unas 650 variantes, explican desde el PROINGED.
