Enel SpA said Tuesday that the renewable capacity it built last
year was significantly higher compared to the year prior and mainly
came from wind and solar power plants.
The Rome-based energy company said that the renewable capacity
built was 5.12 gigawatts, an increase of roughly 65% on year. This
includes around 220 megawatts of battery capacity.
Once fully operational, the new capacity is set to produce
around 16.3 terawatt hours a year, preventing the emission of
around 11 million tons a year of carbon dioxide into the
atmosphere, according to Enel.
Enel's renewables arm Enel Green Power now manages around 54 GW
of total renewable capacity and foresees reaching around 154 GW by
2030, it said.
The energy generated from renewable sources last year amounted
to around 119 TWh, of which 55.4 TWh from wind and solar, 57 TWh
from hydro and 6 TWh from geothermal.
