Iberdrola Renewables views Spain, as well as the region of Andalusia as a cornerstone in its strategic initiatives moving towards the future. This deal for the 1.5 MW wind turbines is covered within the framework of a strategic agreements. Eozen is seen as a outstanding manufacture of wind turbines by Iberdrola, mainly due to the high quality of the large turbines and the meeting the standards regarding grid voltage faults. The long term value of this can not be underestimated as this means less maintenance costs and more up time availability. These turbines are also very clean due to their lack of gear boxes and refrigerant fluids.
This agreement marks the first foray by Eozen into the local market, even though the company had already been expanding internationally into India for an 18 MW wind farm. Eozen is at work in turbines totaling 85 MW on wind farms in Germany, Canada, China, the United States, Poland, Bulgaria, and Pakistan.
