The Maspujols City Council, located in the Baix Camp region, is developing a municipal energy service to provide residents with access to solar power from a centralized installation.

The project involves installing nearly 500 solar panels on the roof of the local sports pavilion. This infrastructure will power municipal buildings and offer the remaining energy to local households through 30-year concessions, matching the equipment's lifespan.

"It is very important for public administrations to lead the ecological transition to make it faster."

José Antonio Rodríguez · Mayor of Maspujols
Residents are expected to pay approximately 450 euros per panel, with an estimated return on investment within four to seven years. The initiative is partially funded by the Nuclear Transition Fund, which covers 50% of the total costs.
