Voltalia SA
Voltalia (Euronext Paris, ISIN code: FR0011995588), an international player in renewable energies, has completed the installation of a solar shelter plant of 3.9 megawatts. Located in the city of Jonquières in ProvenceAlpes-Côte d'Azur (South region), these solar shelters will protect a market and the dedicated parking lot from the sun and the rain.
"Since2005, Voltalia has been developing projects with a positive impact on the environment and human development. Solar shelters for car parks in the city of Jonquières are a good example. On top of contributing to fight global warming by producing solar power, these solar shelters provide more comfort all year round to the visitors and salespersons of a market which has an important role in the local economy"commented Sébastien Clerc, CEO of Voltalia.
A new plant in the South region Winner of the CRE national call for tenders in August 2018[1], this new plant benefits from a 20-year power sales agreement and will be fully operational at the end of the month. 3.9 megawatts, 13,260 modules and 3,509 tons of CO2 avoided each year are the main key figures of this solar plant which production corresponds to the consumption of 5,000 people. It is Voltalia's fifth power plant in operation in Provence Alpes-Côte d'Azur (South region).
Developing new applications for solar energy Solar shelters are compatible with various types of activities such as the industry, farming or as in the present case, commercial activities. They contribute to enhancing land value and also have, in the long term, a role to play in the acceleration of electric mobility as they are designed to accommodate fast-charging stations. Helexia, a Voltalia subsidiary, and a recognized specialist of solar rooftops and shelters will shortly test fast-charging stations in Portugal. Voltalia and Helexia work hand in hand on a number of projects and won, for example, in April 2020, a new contract for a 1.4-megawatt solar shelter project in French Guiana[2].
