With the most powerful wind turbines Palencia, Spain See on Google Maps
Featuring 10 Nordex wind turbines with 4.8MW rated capacity, the new wind farm was commissioned in 2022.

ACCIONA Energía has comissioned the Celada Fusión wind farm (48MW) in the Valles del Cerrato region, in Palencia (Spain). With an investment of more than €45M, the wind farm started operations in the first half of 2022.

The wind farm includes 10 Nordex 149 wind turbines that will be installed atop 125-meter-high steel towers. The turbines, among the most powerful units developed for onshore wind power, are the first of this series to be installed in Spain.

The Celada Fusión project is located in the Spanish municipalities of Baltanás, Herrera de Valdecañas and Hornillos de Cerrato (Palencia). This new facility is within close proximity to the Celada I and V wind farms (34MW and 26MW, respectively) which ACCIONA Energía also operates in the region. Given this proximity to the other wind farms, the company is able to use most of the access and interconnection infrastructure that were developed previously in the area.

Annual production at Celada Fusión is estimated at 136,000MWh per year of clean electricity, which will contribute to the decarbonization of the Spanish electricity mix and will avoid the emission of 60,000 tons of CO2 per year. The wind farm will offset the energy used for its construction (including the manufacture of all equipment, extraction of raw materials, etc.) in less than nine months.
