Greenalia secures development permit for the 50 MW Gofio wind project in the Canary Islands

Greenalia has obtained authorization in terms of aeronautical easements by the Spanish AESA (State Aviation Safety Agency) for the assembly of the four wind turbines of the 50 MW floating offshore wind farm project in the Canary Islands. 

With this permit, Greenalia has the approval for Gofio floating offshore wind farm in the port of Arinaga and for its subsequent towing to the final location, planned in front of the municipality of San Bartolomé de Tirajana, within the territorial sea of the Canary Islands. 

The Gofio wind farm will generate enough power for the consumption of up to 70,000 homes and offsets about 140,000 tons of carbon emission per year once operational. Greenalia will now apply for environmental and other development permits to start the construction of the wind project.
