Greenalia is committed to supplying renewable energy to the Lugo plant for up to 183 MW in base load, energy that will be supplied by wind farms that the company, based in A Coru\u00f1a, is developing in Galicia, mainly planned in the province of Lugo where Alcoa\u2019s facility is located.<\/p>\n<p>This power contract is a very important step for the long-term viability of San Cipri\u00e1n. The agreement is expected to provide up to 183 megawatts of the smelter\u2019s baseload power consumption, representing approximately 45 percent of the energy required to meet the smelter\u2019s maximum capacity of 228,000 metric tons per year.<\/p>\n<p>For this agreement, Greenalia has selected 29 projects, all of them with access and connection in Galicia, with a total capacity of 924 MW. Greenalia\u2019s new wind power developments will have an investment of more than 1,000 million euros and more than 9,400 jobs mobilized.<\/p>\n<p>Another key is the commitment to renewable energy through facilities implemented in Galicia. This reflects the clear commitment of both companies to the territory and sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe signing of this PPA is a new milestone in the company\u2019s history, especially for what it means in terms of contributing to improving the competitiveness of industry in Galicia \u2013 in this specific case for the electro-intensive industry \u2013 and, consequently, for the future of so many jobs that, in one way or another, depend on this industry. We are convinced that alliances like this help to provide solutions to one of the major problems that factories like San Cipri\u00e1n must face, the price of energy, and to do so in a sustainable way\u201d, says Manuel Garc\u00eda, CEO of the company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For this agreement, Greenalia has selected 29 projects, with a total capacity of 924 MW, that will supply 183 MW base load energy to Alcoa\u2019s smelter Greenalia will invest over 1,000 million euros and mobilize over 9,400 jobs with these new wind power developments.
