13.86 million euros for the floating plant in Vau i Dejës - Contract signed with the Chinese-Spanish consortium
The design, construction and operation of the floating solar plant in Vau e Dejës will cost 13.86 million euros. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development has announced the signing of a contract between “SENA Solar Energy of Albania”, owned by the Albanian Power Corporation, and the Chinese-Spanish joint venture Gamma – Sungrow.
According to previously announced details, the contract includes detailed design, supply, installation, testing, as well as a 2-year operation and maintenance period.
According to KESH, the capacity of this plant will be 12.97 MWp and according to calculations, the projected production in the first year will reach 18,808 mWh, with an average production of 17,822 mWh/year throughout its life.
Also, according to KESH, although floating photovoltaic plants are still considered a new technology, the plant's anchoring system will ensure normal operation even with fluctuations of up to 15 meters in water level and maximum wind resistance for the next 50 years.
The construction of the floating solar plant is one of KESH's projects, within the framework of diversifying energy production sources. Currently, the public energy production company owns only one solar plant of 5.14 MWp positioned at the Qyrsaqi dam, in Vau e Dejës, while the rest of the generating assets include the 3 HPPs of the Drini Cascade.
