La energía generada se emplea para el consumo interno del Centro X y, en su mayoría, se vierte a la red para su distribución a los consumidores finales.

inert and unpolluted waste


Explanation:
Based on the various DRAE definitions of "solar" and the context below, I'm guessing that "solares" has to do with soil.


Example from Linguee:

Los artículos 7 y 8 de la presente Decisión no se aplicarán a las instalaciones de residuos que contengan **residuos inertes o suelo no contaminado**. eur-lex.europa.eu

Article 7 and 8 of this Decision shall not apply to waste facilities containing **inert waste or unpolluted soil** only.
