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 Provence
Alpes-Côte d'Azur (South region), these solar shelters will protect a market
and the dedicated parking lot from the sun and the rain.
"Since 2005, 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].
