Trina Solar Ltd. says it has been selected by Gestamp Solar to supply modules for a 42.5 MW PV plant located in Marcovia, which is in the Choluteca region of the Republic of Honduras.
The 445-acre PV project, named Marcovia Solar, will be the first PV plant constructed by Gestamp Solar in Honduras.
Trina Solar will supply more than 160,000 of its high-efficiency, utility-grade PC14 310 W modules. The installation will be fitted with 300 solar trackers to maximize efficiency.
Expected to be operational in the second quarter of the year, the solar plant will generate 93 GWh per year and provide energy for 135,000 people and 45,000 homes.
