(Jan. 9) – Enel Green Power España, the Spanish subsidiary of Enel Green Power, has connected the Agreda wind farm to the grid. Agreda is located in the autonomous community of Castile and Leon in Spain. The new plant boasts an installed capacity of 18 MW. The operating facility will be able to generate around 48 million kWh per year. The clean energy generated by the wind farm’s twelve 1.5 MW turbines will avoid the atmospheric emission of 35 thousand tonnes of CO2 each year. The Agreda wind farm will add to EGP’s current renewable capacity of around 450 MW already operating in the autonomous community of Castile and Leon and to the company’s total installed capacity exceeding 1,850 MW in Spain and Portugal. In addition, in the Canary Islands, EGP’s Spanish subsidiary has completed the renovation of the Juan Adalid, Carretera de Arinaga and Fuencaliente wind farms, which have been connected to the grid. The installed capacity of the three facilities now totals about 11 MW following a post-renovation capacity increase nearing 2 MW. (red)
