Update on irrigation pilot plant

Update on irrigation pilot plant

During April 2019, the installation work and start up tests for our irrigation pilot plant were completed.  This pilot tested the generation of micro-hydro energy at the Cortijo Calonge farm in Palma del Río (Spain).

The winning company, Tecnoturbines, finalised the installation of the entire monitoring system so that the technology was available and ready to start generating clean and sustainable energy before the imminent irrigation season begins.

This pilot plant, with which the economic, social and environmental impact of the recovery of hydroelectric energy in irrigation networks can be evaluated, is the only one focused on irrigation networks.
