“With this project we continue to strengthen our position in the Mexican photovoltaic market, where we have more than 1.3 GW installed. In addition, being a plant with bifacial modules, we will produce more energy optimizing the space and decreasing the installation time”, explained Sergio Prado, Head of Sales in Mexico.
Soltec will be responsible for creating 200 of jobs during the installation and supply stage. The compny and Enel Green Power are cooperating with trade unions and the local government to promote local employment.
