San Benito's EPR Solar and a group of Israeli investors have signed a memorandum of understanding to back the first 50 MW phase of a planned 100 MW solar project near Nicaragua's capital, Managua. The country's energy minister, Salvador Mansell Castrillo, said the scheme will use the Spain substation, which will be expanded to accommodate the additional capacity. The finished solar project will be Nicaragua's largest to date. Clean energy accounts for around 60% of the country's total mix.
