PROJECT | Renewable Energy Park in the Algarve |
PROJECT COST | 400,000,000.00 |
COMPLETION DATE | 21/01/2023 |
PROJECT INFORMATION | The building plan for a solar energy park in the Algarve region will involve selecting a flat area for solar arrays with access roads. The solar arrays, consisting of photovoltaic panels arranged in rows with optimal tilt and orientation, would include monitoring stations for real-time performance data. The infrastructure would encompass a central substation for electrical equipment, an optional energy storage facility (batteries), and meteorological stations for weather monitoring. The plan incorporates green spaces with native vegetation to enhance biodiversity, as well as buffer zones around solar arrays. Facilities on-site would include an administrative building for personnel, a maintenance building with workshops, and a community engagement center for meetings and education. Security measures, such as controlled access points, perimeter fencing, surveillance cameras, and lighting, would be implemented. Designated parking areas for employees and visitors would be provided, and environmental mitigation measures, such as erosion control and retention ponds for rainwater runoff, would be integrated. The plan also emphasizes sustainability with the use of environmentally friendly construction materials and the implementation of energy-efficient lighting and HVAC systems. |
