Cabreira Wind Farm

Cabreira Wind Farm, located in Cabreira Mountain, consists of 33 wind turbines with 600 kW unit power, corresponding to a total installed power of 19,8 MW.

The connection of the park to the power grid is made through a 60 kV power line with a length of 25 km that connects to Armamar Substation.

The environmental studies included:

• Characterization of the reference situation in order to identify and limit archaeological and ecological sensitive areas, which could condition the establishment of the wind farm;
• Identification, forecast and assessment of potential impacts, positive or negative, arising from the implementation of the wind farm, immediate or long term, during the construction, exploration and decommissioning phases;
• Definition of a set of measures capable of minimizing the identified potential negative impacts.

Archaeological Monitoring was carried out during the construction phase.

Studies developed in 1998, from 2003 to 2005 and in 2011.
