Two major solar plants threaten 340 hectares of farmland in Medio Vinalopó

Two major photovoltaic solar plant projects represent a threat to 340 hectares of agricultural land in the Medio Vinalopó area, according to warnings from local sectors.

The planned installations would occupy significant extensions of land currently used for crops, generating concern amongst farmers and agricultural organisations in the area.

The Medio Vinalopó area, known for its traditional agricultural activity, thus faces the dilemma between the development of renewable energy and the preservation of the primary sector.

The projects are in the administrative processing phase, and it is expected that the authorities will assess the impact on local agricultural activity before granting final authorisations.
