Creating a Hybrid Hydro-Wind System on a Spanish Island

This project, being developed by Gorona del Viento El Hierro S.A., is under construction. The facility is expected to be completed by the end of 2012 and operating by March 2013. Understanding the situation El Hierro, the smallest and most southwestern of the Canary Islands, is 250 km off the African coast in the Atlantic Ocean. Peak power demand on the island is 7.56 MW, and electricity is supplied by an 11.36 MW diesel plant. Annual energy demand on the island is about 35 GWh, and the growth rate has been 8% a year. This is expected to stabilize in the next three to five years at an annual rate of 4%. Results of this situation are: Dependence on foreign energy sources, through buying 100% of the fossil fuel consumed; Increasing greenhouse gas emissions as energy consumption grows above the amounts Spain agreed to in the Kyoto Protocol; and High cost of electricity genera...
