Chevron's 4.03 MWp solar project has commenced at the fuel terminal in Bahía Las Minas, Colón, Panama. This 30-year project is expected to generate 5.15 GWh of renewable electricity annually, covering the entire power consumption of the terminal's operations. The plant, built by Chevron in partnership with Colombian energy company Celsia, will cover four hectares of land on the terminal.
The installation consists of 6,714 solar panels spread over the four hectares and is designed for a 30-year service life. Once operational, the solar power plant will eliminate approximately 1,809.3 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year, contributing to Chevron's sustainability efforts.
