📋 Tender Overview
Scope : Construction of the El Escudo wind farm in Cantabria, Spain.
Iberdrola has gained approval to commence preliminary construction of the El Escudo wind farm in Cantabria, Spain.
The project, headed by local firm Biocantaber – in which Iberdrola España holds a stake – is set to bolster Spain’s renewable energy capacity.
The El Escudo facility, with a planned capacity of 101MW, is poised to produce energy sufficient for the annual needs of 95,300 households.
The initiative will prevent the emission of 45,000mt of CO2 each year.
The wind farm represents a €120m ($130m) investment, with a substantial portion allocated to local businesses, creating 200 jobs during peak construction periods.
It will be the first wind farm in Spain to implement building information modelling, allowing for precise construction management and measures to reduce environmental impact.
