✅ #RenewableEnergy | Statkraft to upgrade Montes del Cierzo wind farm in #Navarre by replacing 44 wind turbines with 10 modern machines The first renewable producer in #Europe and leader in the PPA market already has the relevant environmental and administrative licences and will begin the first phase of the repowering at the beginning of the new year. Once this initial stage is completed, which will require the company to invest close to 100 million euros, the wind farm will be more efficient, will produce more clean energy and will minimise the visual impact by reducing the number of wind turbines by 77%. The project has also been selected by the IDAE. Instituto para la Diversificación y Ahorro de la Energía and will receive a grant of up to 4.6 million euros from the #NextGenerationEU funds. #Navarra #InvestInNavarra #WindPower #NextGenerationFunds #EnvironmentalImpact #EnergyTransition 📲💻 [All details] 👇 https://lnkd.in/d5g9GVH7

✅ #RenewableEnergy | TotalEnergies to complete generation at its #Castejón combined cycle power plant with solar and wind energy The gas facility located in the south of the region consists of two groups: Castejón 1, in operation since 2002, and Castejón 3, in operation since 2008. Both have a combined capacity of 850 MW. Now the intention of its managers is to equip it with a solar photovoltaic plant and a wind power plant with a combined installed renewable power of 131 MW, together with their evacuation infrastructures. In total, TotalEnergies will have 981 MW installed in Castejón using the same grid access point, which will allow it to make better use of this capacity by using the existing infrastructure. #InvestInNavarra #innovation #SolarPower #WindPower 📲💻 [All details] 👇 https://lnkd.in/d__vBAb8
