Solvéo Énergie recommends mini-solar fields (MCS)
Solvéo Énergie has imagined mini solar fields (MCS) that would produce local energy. This energy would be consumed locally through the distributor ILEK. These are small-scale projects (one third to one half hectare), without any support mechanism, to make the most of undeveloped land sites, and located as close as possible to the needs of consumers. There is a desire to develop these mini-fields in Occitania.
