Naturgy has completed the mechanical assembly of the wind turbines of the Serra de Punago-Vacariza wind farm, which will be located in the municipalities of Castroverde, Baleira and Baralla, in the province of Lugo. This project involves an investment of around EUR43 million (US$48.5 million).
The company continues with the electrical assembly phase inside the wind turbines of the park and associated evacuation facilities, after completing the civil works and hoisting under the strictest preventive measures of archaeological and environmental monitoring.
Once the electrical assembly of wind turbines is completed, restoration and revegetation with native species is planned, complying with the indications established by the relevant environmental organizations.
The Serra de Punago-Vacariza wind project includes 12 wind turbines with 3.3 MW of unitary power, a bushing height of 84 meters and a rotor diameter of 132 meters. The wind turbines will have a total power of 39.6 MW and an estimated annual production of 112.4GWh, which is equivalent to the electricity consumption of 50,000 homes. In addition, it will prevent the emission of some 89,000 tons of CO2 annually into the atmosphere, and other greenhouse gases.
