Overview
P.E. DE TORTOSA is an operational onshore wind farm in Spain with a capacity of 29.9 MW, contributing to the country's renewable energy expansion under the EU Renewable Energy Directive.
P.E. DE TORTOSA is an onshore wind farm located in Spain, owned by PARC EOLIC DE TORTOSA S.L. With a capacity of 29.9 MW, it represents a medium-scale wind installation within the Spanish renewable energy landscape. The facility is operational and supports the national grid with clean electricity. The wind farm operates under Spain's regulatory framework aligned with the EU Renewable Energy Directive III (2023/2413), which sets a 42.5% renewable target by 2030. Spain has implemented feed-in tariffs and grid connection regimes to promote wind energy, making it a key market for onshore wind development. The facility's capacity places it among typical medium-sized wind farms in the region. Environmentally, the wind farm contributes to reducing carbon emissions and supports Spain's transition to a low-carbon economy. Its location in the Tortosa area benefits from consistent wind resources, though like all wind farms, it requires careful planning to mitigate visual and ecological impacts, such as bird and bat interactions. The facility plays a role in local energy supply and grid stability.
Environmental context
The wind farm is situated in the Tortosa region of Catalonia, an area with favorable wind conditions for renewable energy generation. Onshore wind farms like this one contribute to Spain's renewable energy goals but require careful siting to minimize visual impact on the landscape and potential effects on local bird and bat populations. The facility's operation supports reduced reliance on fossil fuels and aligns with EU climate targets.
