Solar Farm

Aura Power is working on a solar farm proposal at Quinta de Seves, Covilhã, with a capacity of 262MWp. This solar farm will generate enough clean electricity to power the equivalent of around 14,500 homes, saving around 8,500 tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere each year.

Solar Farms not only increase the supply of clean power, but as solar is the lowest cost form of new energy generation, it will also help to reduce national power prices.

Our Proposal

Site Location

We have been undertaking several environmental and visual surveys to help inform our design so far. Our proposal offers several ecological and local benefits, along with continued agricultural use, with sheep being able to graze beneath the panels.

Our aim is to design the solar farm appropriately and as sensitively as possible to the surroundings, whilst maximising the generation of clean energy.

The site is located in Alentejo, the highest solar resource province inPortugal.
