Siemens Gamesa has signed a 150 MW agreement with Elawan Energy to supply 30 SG 5.0-145 model turbines for the wind complex, formed by three wind farms in the same area – Fuente Álamo, Frontones, and Derramador, with 50 MW each - is located in Albacete province, Castilla La Mancha, Spain.

The three projects are scheduled to be commissioned in mid-2022. The contract with Elawan also includes a long-term service agreement for a period of 20 years.

The 150 MW of clean energy that the complex will produce will provide electricity to more than 110,000 households, almost the entire province of Albacete. In addition, its size will help to avoid the emission of nearly 400,000 tonnes of CO2 a year, the equivalent to the emissions of more than 200,000 vehicles. To achieve this CO2 saving, just over six million trees would need to be planted.
