The construction of a new solar power plant has started in the Sveti Nikole village of Gorubinci. The company- MGI Energetika DOO is investing around one million euros. The nominal power of the installed 2,196 photovoltaic silicon panels is one megawatt.
The Mayor of the Municipality of Sveti Nikole, Sasho Velkovski, says that the Municipality of Sveti Nikole is a committed partner of the business community, including the energy sector. As the implementer of the government strategy for increasing the energy capacity of renewable sources, he pointed out that the municipality ensures the best conditions and puts its capacities at the disposal of the business sector to invest in that area.
The construction is additionally equipped with a movable element, which with the help of a sensor will monitor the movement of the sun, and thus the photovoltaic panels will be turned towards the sun at all times, which additionally increases the energy efficiency and the produced quantity of electricity. At the same time, the expected annual electricity production is 2000 kWh or 2000 MWh, which corresponds to avoiding emission of about 1000 kgCO2/annually, or, combustion of 600 kilograms of coal.
