Voltalia has started the construction of a 99.4-megawatt wind project at its new Canudos cluster, which has a 1-gigawatt potential.
The Canudos 1 project has increased from the 90 megawatts announced in December 2019. The long-term power sale agreement, for a duration of 20 years, was signed with Brazilian utilities Cemig.
Voltalia chose the G132 - 3.55 MW model for the 28 turbines which will equip the plant. Construction of the substation has already started, and the wind farm itself is expected to be fully commissioned in the first half of 2022.
