Green funding for new wind farms in Spain

THE European Investment Bank (EIB) has offered what is known as a green loan of €50 million to a consortium made up of Spanish electric utility company Iberdrola and Caja Rural de Navarra.

The money is intended to finance the building of four new windfarms in Navarra which will be built between Cadreita and Valtierra.

The work should see the employment of around 200 people and be completed in the first quarter of 2020 as part of an ongoing EU plan to increase renewable energy
