Construction start for TICO WIND plant

The TICO WIND plant will start operating in the beginning of 2022, and will have the capacity to generate about 471 GWh per year. This volume of production will prevent the annual emission of 385,505 tons of CO2. The wind farm will consist of 43 wind turbines, 26 of them with 3.65 MW of unit power and 17 with 5 MW of unit power.

Enel Green Power España uses a variety of tools and techniques for the construction of its wind farms, including drones for topographic surveys, smart tracking of the wind turbine components, advanced digital platforms and software solutions to monitor and provide remote support for onsite activities.

The construction of this project is based on Enel Green Power's 'Sustainable Construction Site' model, which includes the installation of solar panels at each site to cover part of their energy needs. Measures to save water will also be taken by installing water tanks and rainwater collection systems. Once construction work has been completed, the solar panels and water saving equipment will be donated to the towns where the projects are located for public use.

José Bogas, CEO of Endesa, stated that "With this project, we reaffirm our commitment to continue strengthening the renewable generation mix in Spain, helping to pursue its objectives in the field of green energy. We are also taking advantage of the wealth of renewable sources in the country while actively promoting innovation and sustainability through the adoption of international best practices during the construction phase."
