The company said it has wrapped up balance of plant work on 345MW of projects as well as turbine installation at most of the sites in Zaragoza that comprise the Veldejalon wind farms and Alenza cluster.

GES has overseen the full EPC, including civil works. Electrical works have also been executed, including underground medium voltage line with more than 80 kms of trenches and 132 and 220 kV evacuation lines of more than 60 kms that discharge energy to the network. Energization of all of them will be completed by the second quarter of 2021.
In addition to the construction of the civil and electrical infrastructure for the energy evacuation, GES has installed 85 turbines of the total of 91 positions that it has built for Monegros portfolio.
