Solar Panels to Power Valencia's Cemeteries

Under the Requiem in Power project, more than 6,600 solar panels will be installed in Valencia's cemeteries. These panels will generate over 440,000 kilowatts per year, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 140 tons and providing energy to municipal buildings and thousands of households. About 800 solar panels have already been placed in three cemeteries. The authorities in Valencia hope to confirm their status as the green capital of Europe. According to the plans, the city is expected to receive 27% of its energy from renewable sources in the coming years.
