- Valeo partners with POWEN to implement a 7.8-MW solar self-consumption project for its Martos plant.
- The renewable installation supplies 16% of plant energy demand and reduces roughly 3,350 tons of CO₂ emissions annually.
Valeo POWEN solar PPA project marks a new step in industrial decarbonization as the automotive supplier expands renewable energy use at its Martos facility in Spain. Announced on March 11, the initiative secures clean electricity through a Power Purchase Agreement structure that enables full self-consumption from an off-site solar installation located approximately 6,000 meters from the plant today.
Renewable Energy Output and Impact
The Valeo Martos facility generates more than 13.52 GWh of renewable electricity annually through the new solar arrangement developed with POWEN. Over 90% of the energy produced is used directly at the site, supporting manufacturing operations while improving energy sustainability. The solar supply now covers around 16% of the plant’s total energy requirements and helps prevent approximately 3,350 tons of CO₂ emissions from being released each year.
