These 22 new wind turbines will replace the 139 traditional models currently supplying power to these power plants, increasing their energy output by approximately 30%.
By 2025, Spain will have over 9.9GW of wind power installed, which can last for 20 years or longer, and it is expected that wind power will become a driving force for energy transition in the coming years. Replacing old turbines with existing technology can significantly increase onshore wind power generation capacity with fewer turbines, thereby reducing environmental impact and land use on the site.
The wind turbines are expected to be delivered in the second quarter of 2025 and are planned to be put into commissioning and operation in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Once put into operation, the two wind power plants will reduce their annual emissions of 53000 tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The carbon dioxide emissions of this project will also benefit from Vestas' strong influence in Spain. The company is currently producing onshore blades at its factory in Demiere, Real City. The wind turbine tower will also be produced locally.
Since Vestas installed its first wind turbine in Spain in 1991, the company's cumulative installed capacity in Spain has exceeded 5.3 gigawatts.
