EDPR’s German solar company has started the construction of two photovoltaic projects in the Netherlands.
These are EDP Renewables’ first projects in the Netherlands and also one of the first projects through its Kronos Solar EDPR subsidiary.
Both are located in Berkelland municipality, in the centre-east province of Gelderland.
The solar projects will have a combined installed capacity of 20.6MW and more than 46000 bifacial solar photovoltaic panels.
“Starting the construction of these photovoltaic plants demonstrates EDPR’s commitment to the energy transition and our ability to develop projects in new and key geographies, expanding our portfolio,” said Duarte Bello, COO of EDP Renewables at Europe & LatAm
“With Kronos Solar EDPR, we are set to continuing to capture growth in solar in the coming years.”
Kronos Solar EDPR has a track record of more than 1.4GW through 80 successfully commissioned projects and a portfolio of 7.5GW of solar projects in different stages of development in Germany, France, the Netherlands and the UK.
EDPR expects to start the construction in a few months of additional projects in the Netherlands, reflecting the company’s dedication to accelerate the energy transition in the country and at a global level.
