The person responsible for urban design emphasized that the total investments in photovoltaic solar projects that have been approved in the past year and a half amounted to more than 1,000 million euros. This has an important economic and social impact, considering that of more than 20 million euros.
Moreover, they are integrated as an amusement pole that contributes to the development of later actions that will be carried out in the area. All this will result in a Improving the quality of life, both in urban and rural areas.
Urban and strategic renewable urban actions for the region
The regional government has, due to the regional and provincial committees of territorial planning and city planning, approved more than 100 strategic urban actions that have promoted Strengthening the position of Castilla-La Mancha as a territorial planning model.
This has been emphasized by the general manager of territorial planning and urban design, Silvia López, who participated in the forum organized by the newspaper El Español-el Digital de Castilla-La Mancha op ‘Renewable energies in the rural environment: challenges and opportunities. ‘
In that sense, the person responsible for Urbanismo emphasized that in terms of economic and social impact, “the Total investments in photovoltaic projects approved in the past 18 months They exceeded 1,000 million euros, generated urban income to the municipalities of just over 21 million and are integrated as an amusement pole with other projects, which improves the quality of life in urban actions, facilitator or adjuvans in the development of other later actions in the area , and rural areas and positioned Castilla-La Mancha as a responsible territorial management model.
Silvia López explained in rural areas: “I approved itNFRASTRUCTURES linked to the agri -food sector sectorAs well as various photovoltaic facilities for agricultural irrigation that have stimulated the rural economy, have generated employment and are a source of income for regional and municipal authorities, as a result of which wealth is determined in depolved municipalities or running the depopulation. “
In terms of economic and social impact, the general director has therefore mentioned the most important approved renewable projects, such as the Talavera de la Reina photovoltaic plantWho will have a capacity of 39,944 MWP and the Solar Plant ‘Cedrela 1’, in Puertollano and Almodóvar del Campo, which will still offer 65 MW in the network with a sustainable design and integrated into the environment.
Different photovoltaic solar projects
The ‘Oliva Solar’ 1 to 5 renewable projects have also been approved in Guadalajara, Galapagos and Torrejón del Rey, including including Five interconnected sun plants with electrical substationsAnd the ‘Aralba’ photovoltaic plant in Albacete, aimed at optimizing the sustainability of energy in agricultural activities, which enhances the connection between technological innovation and the primary sector.
Likewise, Silvia López has assured that “the dedication of the García-Page government is to continue with agility and improving the services, and in that sense we work on two very useful tools that make us more efficient management and accessible, accessible, ,, ” Promotion and also promoting urban transparency: One of them is the implementation of a urban manager of files that entails a qualitative leap into urban management, because it simplifies the exchange of information and speeds up the procedures, reduces bureaucracy and efficiency in the application for authorizations, permits And concessions is being improved.
And the other tool, is a new integral viewer of territorial and city planning, as a general public system Integrates all information about land and urban design of our regionAs a result of which citizens can obtain all urban information from the region on electronic means. “
The general director of territorial planning and urban design explained that “the planning of land use in a suitable manner and the good management of the territory not only helps to maximize the Efficiency of renewable energy generation, but also minimizes environment and social impactAllowing coexistence with local economic activities, such as agriculture and tourism, “because” renewable energies do not necessarily have to compete for resources with other activities, they can share them, optimize land use, “he added.
