Iberdrola will start work on the new Las Aulagas (13.8MW) and Chimiche II (18.4MW) wind farms in Tenerife, it says.

The company will be sharing these projects with a local partner. The expected investment amounts to about €40 million ($45 million) and the time frame for commissioning the facilities is approximately 21 months from now.

The project will be Iberdrola’s first in the country since December 2012, when it commissioned El Segredal in Asturias, a facility with an installed capacity of 36MW provided by 18 Gamesa G80 model wind turbines.
