Voltalia (Euronext Paris, ISIN code:
FR0011995588), an international player in renewable energies,
announces that its SSM3-6 solar
power plant is now producing at full capacity, including the
last 133 megawatts unit whose
start-up was slowed by the consequences of the grid blackout on 15
August.
“Although the ramp-up of the SSM3-6 solar power
plant has been slowed down at the request of the grid operator, we
are proud to announce that SSM3-6 is injecting its full power into
the electricity grid. At the same time, our teams are fully
mobilised to bring another of our new power stations into
production: the Canudos wind farm, which is also ready to feed
power into the grid”, says Sébastien Clerc, CEO of
Voltalia.
Construction of the SSM3-6 solar power plant1
(Solar Serra do Mel 3, 4, 5 and 6) began in March 2022. The plant
began generating power in July 2023 with an initial unit of 17
megawatts2, gradually adding a further 243 megawatts to reach its
full capacity of 260 megawatts.
The current test phase demonstrates the capacity
of the grid to absorb the full output of the SSM3-6 solar power
plant.
