VETEJAR Diesel Power Plant in Spain - Capacity 12.9 MW

VETEJAR is a diesel power plant located in Spain, with coordinates 42.702000, 0.795600. The facility has a capacity of 12.9 MW and uses oil as its primary fuel. It is operated by VAPOR Y ELECTRICIDAD EL TEJAR S.L. and is currently in operational status. As a diesel-fired plant, VETEJAR operates under the regulatory framework of the European Union's Industrial Emissions Directive (2010/75/EU), which sets emission limits for SOx, NOx, and particulate matter. Diesel plants in Spain are subject to national implementation of these standards, including Best Available Techniques (BAT) conclusions for large combustion plants. The plant's capacity of 12.9 MW places it in the small-scale category for power generation. The environmental context of VETEJAR involves its fuel type and emissions profile. Diesel combustion produces CO2, SOx, and NOx, contributing to local air quality considerations. The plant's location in a rural area of Spain may have implications for nearby populations and ecosystems. Its small capacity suggests a role in local or backup power supply rather than baseload generation.

The VETEJAR diesel power plant uses oil as fuel, resulting in CO2, SOx, and NOx emissions. Its location in a rural area of Spain may affect local air quality and nearby ecosystems. The plant's small capacity (12.9 MW) indicates a limited environmental footprint compared to larger facilities, but diesel combustion still contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and local pollutants.
