Total Eren has commissioned its 50.4 MW Malaspina wind project in southern Argentina.
The Malaspina wind farm is located in the Chubut province, one of the five Patagonian provinces which lies on the Atlantic coast and where average wind speeds can exceed 10 m/s (comparable with locations of offshore wind farms in the German part of the North Sea).
The wind farm was co-financed by KfW IPEX-Bank and FMO in December 2018 and holds a USD-based 20-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with CAMMESA, the Argentinian administrator of the wholesale electricity market. It is equipped with 14 type 3.6M114NES wind turbines from the German company Senvion, and it is expected to produce 245 GWh per year, enough to supply the need of 60,000 homes in Argentina.
