Madrid-based Acciona Energía has completed its second hybrid renewable energy plant in Spain with the construction of a 19.7 MWp photovoltaic plant on the site of the 26 MW Peralejo wind farm, in the municipalities of Villalba del Rey and Tinajas, in Cuenca . The location will generate 37 GWh of clean electricity annually.
Peralejo is the company’s second hybrid project. Hybridization allows the solar and wind fields to use the same grid connection point.
In January 2024, Acciona commissioned its first hybrid project, the 29.4 MWp solar energy and 36 MW wind energy Escepar site in Villalba del Rey. The company also developed the 50 MWp Bolarque photovoltaic power station in Tinajas. Acciona Energía is promoting another hybrid project in Granada, as pv magazine has reported, a 29.54 MW photovoltaic plant will be hybridized with the 30 MW Los Morrones wind farmlaunched in 2008 and located in the municipalities of Baza and Zújar.
Acciona Energía told it pv magazine it has 1.8 GW of hybridization projects in the pipeline.
In terms of storage, the portfolio amounts to 2.4 GW, of which 400 MW will be built in the United States.
By 2025, the company plans to build 83 MW of solar power generation capacity in the Dominican Republic, at the Pedro Corto project, and 153 MW in India, at the Juna site. In 2026, Acciona will build 48 MW of solar capacity on the Viscofan project in Spain, 225 MW on two projects in the United States – with another 115 MW to be added in 2027 – and another 100 MW on the Promina project in Croatia .
