Aldesa wins EUR 160 million EPC for 420 MW solar and 150 MW BESS in Mexico

The Spanish contractor, owned by China Railway Construction Corp., will handle detailed engineering, construction, equipment supply, commissioning and related grid works. The project combines 420 MWp of solar PV with a 150 MW BESS, although the battery’s MWh capacity and duration have not been disclosed. For Mexico, the contract adds another large hybrid project to a market where solar-plus-storage is increasingly being used to improve dispatchability and grid integration.
