With an objective to generate 20% of energy through renewable sources by 2020, the Ministry of Energy of Spain, OMEL, held the renewable energy auction on 26 July for a quota of 3GW of new renewable energy installations.

Alfanar Energy CEO Jamal M Wadi said: “As a global energy development company, Alfanar is targeting to develop 9,000MW globally by 2025.

“The auction in Spain was a gateway for Alfanar to enter into the European market and we are glad that we will have global operational assets close to 1.84GW by the end of 2019.

“After a successful collaboration in India, we are very pleased to expand our existing cooperation with Senvion with the projects in Spain. We are confident that Senvion will deliver the turbines within the prescribed timelines, and that this order will help Senvion to establish its strong market presence in Spain.”

Alfanar won the largest wind allotment of 720MW in the Spanish auction held in July last year.

Established in 1976 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Alfanar is an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor in the energy sector in the Middle East, and also manufactures electrical products in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region.
