Martifer Solar has signed a contract to install a 22MW PV project in Portugal. The system, which will be the largest in Portugal when completed next year, is being commissioned by an unnamed client of BNP Paribas Clean Energy Partners.

The plant is the first, and largest, of a number that Martifer plans to install in south Portugal and will generate around 37.4GWh of electricity a year. It also further expands the company’s global presence; in the past 12 months Martifer has installed systems in Cape Verde, India, Belgium, Italy and the Czech Republic.
