TECHNICAL AREA Projects

The technological diversity of turbines present in Sotavento, turns this farm into an ideal testing ground for the study, research and comparison of output in the field of wind energy.

The farm is a suitable centre of research and technological demonstration in order to improve the output and the implementation of renewable energetic systems.

Sotavento is equipped with resources and determining factors that contribute to carry out the following actions:

• Different wind turbines technologies of the latest generation at the same location.
• Having classrooms, auditoriums, land and workshops for the development of technical courses, congresses and actuations of R&D.
• Being open to the University, institutions, professionals, companies and other collectives that could make some contribution to the renewable energies.

• Anemos.
• Supervision of electricity systems in Sotavento Wind Farm.
• Optimization of the Wind Farm´s all-round management.
• Orographic effects and trails´ effects in Sotavento Experimental Wind Farm.
• Wind turbines´ centralized system of energy measuring in Sotavento Wind Farm.
• Installation of a model of prediction of the energetic production in Sotavento Wind Farm.
• Study and simulation systems of wind generation at Sotavento. Energetic efficiency and electromagnetic compatibility
• Thermic solar monitorization Sotavento
• System to produce Hydrogen
• Bioclimatic House
• Electric Photovoltaic Installation
