Photovoltaic plants

Photovoltaic systems play an increasingly relevant role in our Group’s strategies for sustainable development. As a matter of fact, by designing new systems, Acea has embarked on a development path to produce energy from photovoltaics. Acea operates in the photovoltaic energy sector with a total installed capacity of approximately 101 MW (data as at 2023).

By the end of 2028, we plan to expand our portfolio with around 870 MW (of which 210 already authorized) of installed photovoltaic plant capacity.

Photovoltaic plants characteristics and technologies

Bifacial photovoltaic panels

The most recently built photovoltaic plants have bifacial panels that generate energy using not just the side facing the sun but also the back, which captures the sunlight that reflects from the ground.

Tracker for photovoltaic plants

Tracking devices allow solar panels to move during the day and follow the movement of the sun. Trackers installed on the plants can be of two different types: single axis trackers, that allow panels to move along the axis, or dual axis trackers, that provide total freedom of movement.
