In the Spanish location of Xeraco, Camping San Vicente has taken a bold step towards sustainable tourism by integrating high-efficiency AIKO N-Type ABC solar modules into its operations. With limited roof space, the project required a solution that could maximize energy generation while reducing its environmental footprint. The installation, featuring 63 units of AIKO-A600-MAH72MW modules with a total capacity of 37.8 kWp, was supplied by local distributor Plug and Play and installed by Genkii. The system achieves a self-consumption ratio of up to 80% without battery storage, significantly reducing dependency on external power sources.
Camping San Vicente operates as an energy provider, selling electricity generated from its solar installation to visiting guests. By harnessing solar power, the campsite has lowered its electricity costs while increasing profitability from energy sales.
Despite a strong business model, the main challenge for this project was limited installation capacity, restricting the potential revenue increase from solar energy. Additionally, the campsite’s location near the coast exposes it to dust, sand and harsh environmental conditions, where AIKO’s partial shading optimization capacity and low degradation rateensures stable performance.
Genkii Manager Jorge Pérez Fuentes commented: “AIKO modules provided the highest power output in a compact format, which was essential given the installation constraints. Their advanced N-Type ABC technology ensures both better energy yield and long-term reliability.”
From the end-user perspective, Natalie Graf, Manager at Camping San Vicente, added: “Since installing AIKO modules, we have seen noticeable reductions in our electricity costs. This investment has strengthened our commitment to sustainable operations and greater energy autonomy. We have also achieved substantial cost savings, which contributed to securing quality certifications for our operations.”
