Hamburg-based renewable energy firm Blue Elephant Energy GmbH (BEE) recently purchased an 11.7 MW photovoltaic (PV) park from German project developer F&S solar concept in August 2023. The park is located near the municipality of Binissalem in Majorca. , is currently being built by GOLDBECK SOLAR, a leading supplier of large-scale PV plant construction.
Scheduled for completion in the third quarter of 2024, the park is expected to generate approximately 18,000 MWh of green electricity annually and serve more than 7,200 households in the region. This initiative is estimated to reduce CO2 emissions by around 6,000 tonnes per year, a significant step forward in Mallorca’s energy transition efforts.
Tim Callas, Chief Investment Officer of Blue Elephant Energy GmbH, emphasized the strategic importance of the project and said: “Mallorca’s abundant sunshine makes it an ideal location for solar energy. “Our 12 MWp PV system will contribute to reducing the island’s dependence on fossil fuels.” He further highlighted the joint efforts with partners F&S solar concept and GOLDBECK SOLAR, expanding their Iberian portfolio to 262 MW.
Georg Schmiedel, managing director of F&S solar concept GmbH, emphasized the importance of the project in solving energy transition problems on the island. “We are pleased to contribute to Mallorca’s sustainable energy transition through the development of the Binissalem solar park,” he said, highlighting the fruitful collaboration with Blue Elephant Energy GmbH.
The project represents a significant milestone in the development of renewable energy infrastructure in Mallorca and highlights the commitment of industry stakeholders to promote sustainable energy solutions.
