Participant Energy has commenced construction on a 14.7-megawatt solar array in Honduras.
The client, Green Valley Industrial Park, is a world-class industrial facility with multinational clients such as Lear Corp., Simtex, and Gildan Textiles.
Participant Energy, a renewable-energy developer based in Northern California, began working in Honduras in 2018 after developing solar in Costa Rica as part of that government's official solar initiative, Plan Piloto.
“We believe that due to the prestige of the client and the fact that this is the largest private commercial solar facility built to date in Honduras, this venture will have a catalytic effect on valuable new markets for renewable energy in this sector,” said Nick Goodwin Self, CEO of Participant Energy.
