Seat - 53,000 panels to harness the power of the sun

One of the world’s largest photovoltaic plants in the automotive industry can be found in the SEAT Martorell factory. Covering an area equivalent to 40 football fields, its 53,000 panels reduce CO2 emissions by nearly 4,000 tonnes annually. The plant generates 17 million kWh a year, enough energy to charge 3,000 mobile phones every day or supply the needs of a city with 15,000 inhabitants. 53,000 panels to harness the power of the sun. 903 minutes of sunlight. That’s how much light the longest day of the year will have in the northern hemisphere on the planet. The summer solstice takes place on 21 June, and signals the beginning of the three months with the most daylight and highest temperatures. Spain and southern Europe enjoy between 2,500 and 3,000 sunlight hours annually, a source of energy that SEAT harnesses thanks to one of the automotive industry’s largest photovoltaic plants:
