Plenitude, an Eni controlled company, inaugurated the 104.5 megawatts (MW) El Monte wind farm in a ceremony attended by representatives of ministerial, regional, provincial and local institutions, the company said in a statement on Monday.
'The El Monte wind farm is located in the Spanish region Castilla La Mancha,' the statement read.
The project is the result of a collaboration with Azora Capital, a strategic partner for Plenitude in Spain in the development of renewable energy projects, both wind and photovoltaic.
El Monte wind farm is now fully operational: renewable energy is generated by 19 GE wind turbines, model Cypress 158, with the largest unit size (5.5 MW) installed in Spain. The plant will produce about 300 GWh per year, equivalent to the domestic consumption of 100,000 households.
