Gamesa to install a further 34 Mw in Spain
Gamesa, one of the world’s main wind turbine generator manufacturers and the leader in Spain in the manufacture, sale and installation of wind turbines, has entered into a new agreement with the company Enel Unión Fenosa de Energías Renovables (EUFER) for the supply of 17 Gamesa G87-2.0 MW wind turbine generators, amounting to the installation of a total of 34 MW.
The wind turbine generators will be destined to the Valdesamario Wind Farm located in Ponferrada in the province of León. This agreement includes the supply, installation and start-up of the wind turbine generators, as well as their operation and maintenance. The start of assembly work is foreseen for the last quarter of 2008.
The awarding of this new contract has reinforced Gamesa’s position in the Spanish wind power market, where the company has been the market leader since it started up its activities.
From an environmental viewpoint, the wind turbine generators Gamesa will supply to the Valdesamario Wind Farm will contribute towards generating energy that respects the environment by avoiding the emission of pollutants into the atmosphere. More specifically, the annual production of these installations’ 34 MW will replace 7,310 tons of petroleum equivalent (TPE) per year and avoid the emission into the atmosphere of 51,000 tons of CO2 a year.
