SunPower公司正在西班牙德阿兰赫省的巴达霍斯为Naturener建设一个9.1兆瓦太阳能光伏发电站。这将是至今为止SunPower公司为Naturener集团设计并建造的第五个太阳能光伏发电站，也是西班牙今年建造的最大的太阳能电站之一。根据与Naturener协议， SunPower公司还将为该电站提供操作和维修服务。
该电站占地38公顷。SunPower公司将安装其公司™T0的追踪技术系统，该系统只需一半的土地面积便可生产与传统双轴跟踪系统等量的能量。
该太阳能电池板跟踪系统白天跟踪太阳，可提供25%以上的固定倾斜系统能源。由于拥有复杂的回溯算法，该系统可避免面板遮荫，同时增加能源的生产。此外，智能电网系统将使太阳能发电站和Naturener附近的水力电厂的共享公用电网相连接。
在追踪系统上，SunPower公司将装入本公司的标准效率太阳能电池板Serengeti。Serengeti可提供相同的高品质，可靠的能源供应和长达25年的SunPower公司的高效率面板产品保修。该电站的建造工程预计始于本月，将雇佣超过150个本地人。
SunPower Corporation is building a 9.1-megawatt (AC) solar power plant in Alange, Badajoz, Spain for the Naturener Group. This will be the fifth solar power plant that SunPower has designed and constructed for Naturener Group to date, and one of the largest to be commissioned in Spain this year. SunPower will also provide operations and maintenance services under the agreement with Naturener.
At the 38-hectare site, SunPower will install its SunPower™ T0 Tracker technology, which requires only half the land area to produce the same amount of energy as conventional dual-axis trackers.
The Tracker systems position solar panels to follow the sun during the day, delivering up to 25 percent more energy than fixed-tilt systems. Due to sophisticated backtracking algorithms, the system avoids panel shading while increasing energy production. In addition, a smart grid system will enable the solar plant and Naturener's nearby hydraulic power plant to share a utility grid connection.
On the Trackers, SunPower will mount the company's standard-efficiency Serengeti solar panels, which offer the same high quality, reliable energy delivery and 25-year warranty as SunPower's high-efficiency panel offerings. Construction on the plant will start this month and is expected to employ over 150 people locally.
