Voltalia, an international player in renewable energy, has been retained by Power Capital Renewable Energy, a leading independent power producer headquartered in Ireland, to build, operate and maintain four photovoltaic projects located in the south-east of the Republic of Ireland, with a total capacity of 230 megawatts.
