GRS and Acciona Energía Launch the 235 MW Fleming Solar Plant – energynews.pro

Solar EPC contractor GRS, part of Grupo Gransolar, will build the 235 MWp Fleming Solar Farm for Acciona Energía in Kentucky, marking the company's renewed push into the US market.
GRS, the solar EPC (engineering, procurement and construction) arm of Grupo Gransolar, has signed an agreement with Acciona Energía to build the Fleming Solar Farm, a 235-megawatt-peak (MWp) photovoltaic plant in the state of Kentucky, United States. The contract marks the Spanish group’s return to activity in the US market, where other solar players are also advancing, as shown by Origis Energy porte son complexe solaire Rockhound à 1 GW au Texas and Zelestra obtient 181 M$ pour son parc solaire Skull Creek au Texas. GRS now exceeds 400 MWp in cumulative capacity across six completed or under-construction projects in the United States.
Fleming Solar Farm will rank, according to GRS, among the largest photovoltaic plants in the state of Kentucky and among the company’s most significant projects worldwide, where it claims a cumulative portfolio of close to 5 gigawatts (GW). The project illustrates the synergies between Grupo Gransolar’s various business lines. GRS Engineering will handle the engineering work, while PV Hardware will supply and install the AxoneDuo Infinity solar trackers, described by the company as a latest-generation technology designed to maximize the plant’s output.
Adolfo Ruiz, Director of Operations at GRS, describes the contract as a turning point for the group’s strategy. According to him, the company has never withdrawn its focus from the US market, which he describes as holding strong potential for the photovoltaic sector. He also highlighted the partnership with Acciona Energía, calling it a reference partner for delivering the project.
The agreement between GRS and Acciona Energía is part of a broader push to develop the solar sector in the United States, where several international groups are strengthening their positions through projects of comparable scale. Grupo Gransolar intends to use this contract as a foundation to build a lasting presence in the country.
