Its 43 operating plants have a total power of 173 MW. It operates 34 plants in Spain, 8 in Italy and one in India and is continuing to broaden its international footprint with the development of new photovoltaic projects in South Africa.

T-Solar has just presented a bid in the second round of the South African government's programme for developing renewable energies, along with Green Continent Partners and the South African companies, IDC, GCBG Solar and Zico.

Marta Martínez, T-Solar CEO, states: "We consider South Africa to be a strategic market for T-Solar. Our company aims to grow at around 100 MW a year. Right now, we have five MW already online outside Europe, with a further 12 MW under construction in India and 44 MW in Peru. We are also analysing opportunities in Mexico, Puerto Rico, the USA and India."

T-Solar is also a member of the Renewable Energy Promotion Consortium in South Africa, whose aim is to promote the "Spanish Renewable Energy" brand in South Africa.
