A groundbreaking ceremony took place Wednesday to begin construction on the photovoltaic Salinas Solar Park, the first of three solar energy production projects developed and operated in Puerto Rico by partner companies Sonnedix and Yarotek.
The new fiscal year that starts July 1 will make $11 million in incentives available to businesses looking to invest in renewable energy projects, Economic Development and Commerce Secretary José Pérez-Riera said Thursday.
Renewable energy site developers are hopeful that the process of establishing wind and solar farms in Puerto Rico will get easier as more projects in the pipeline are approved.
