Florida, Oct. 13 – The Ortigal Photovoltaic Solar Park, located in the municipality of Florida, has reached approximately 75 percent completion in its first phase, with the goal of beginning to generate nearly 13 megawatts within the next 30 days.
The work plan involves commissioning four of the seven inverters scheduled for the project, which will have a total installed capacity of 21.8 megawatts, relying entirely on Chinese-made technology.
According to Frank Clibeiro García, General Director of the Camagüey Construction and Assembly Company No. 1, the primary and secondary containers, the four main inverters, and the outdoor lighting system have already been installed on-site, and the perimeter fence has been completed.
Current efforts are focused on excavation, pile casting, and the assembly of the remaining 300 structures—or mounting racks—out of the 900 required for this first phase; these tasks are proceeding after overcoming delays caused by rain and earlier unforeseen issues.
Following the resolution of initial fuel availability constraints, construction teams are advancing at a steady pace to complete the civil and electrical infrastructure that will allow the first four inverters to connect to the national power grid.
The imminent synchronization of the Ortigal Solar Park will make a significant contribution to the stability of the national electricity supply, reaffirming the state’s commitment to transforming the country’s energy matrix.
