Greenalia is advancing in the development of its floating offshore wind projects in the Canary Islands, with the recent execution of a geophysical campaign in San Bartolomé de Tirajana where the 50 MW Gofio wind farm project will be built. The wind farm is located off the coast of San Bartolome de Tirajana, Spain.
The main objective of this geophysical campaign is to obtain a more detailed knowledge of the conditions of the seabed where the project will be implemented. The study will provide insight to advance with greater precision in the design processes of the floating structures and the project certification.
The results of this campaign have confirmed the analysis carried out within the Environmental Impact Study (EIA), prepared in 2020, and has also allowed obtaining a greater knowledge of the biodiversity of the seabed. These works show the compatibility with the environment and the reduced environmental impact that the project could generate.
