We have no doubt that this collaboration will help us continue advancing in our objective of contributing to the energy independence of our country with efficient wind projects" says Iván Nogueiras, General Director of Norvento Enerxía.

“We are very proud to partner with Norvento to expand wind energy in Galicia. We are also glad to see the suitability of the latest models of Vestas’ 4 MW platform for the Spanish market.
