The mayor, Andrés García, and the Councilor for Urban Development, Carlos Ballester, accompanied today a representation of the residents of Totana and Aledo affected by the High Voltage Line of the Photovoltaic Plant that the company X-Elio plans to build in the district of Lorca of Zarcilla de Ramos, in his meeting with the Government delegate in Murcia, Diego Conesa.
Together with the municipal authorities, the mayor of Aledo, Juan José Andreo, and representatives of Plataforma ACUDE and Ecologists in Action, respectively, attended.

This evacuation line is a high voltage line that, according to the project, would have a length of about 40 kilometers and would join the photovoltaic solar plant from Zarcilla de Ramos with the electrical substation located in El Saladar, also crossing the municipality of Aledo, allowing the evacuation of the spill to the network of the electrical energy of the plant, whose capacity would be 400 megawatts.
After several years of negotiations that are believed to have led nowhere, the Platform of Affected by the High Voltage Line of Totana and Aledo made mobilizations and legal claims and not only against the line that must evacuate the production of the park. photovoltaic energy 'Lorca Solar', but also against this own project.
