STAR PROJECT: WIND OFF-SHORE
 ON ONE SIDE, SPAIN IS ONE OF THE LEADERS IN SHORE BASED WIND
ENERGY.
 SPANISH COMPANIES (e.g. IBERDROLA, ACCIONA; etc.) OPERATE WIND
FARMS IN SPAIN AND ABROAD (USA, etc.).
 SOME OF KEY EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS ARE SPANISH (e.g.
GAMESA).
 ON THE OTHER SIDE, WIND OFF-SHORE HAS PECULIARITIES THAT REQUIRE
NAVAL ENGINEERING PROCEDURES AND SPECIFIC VESSELS.
 IBERDROLA IS ALREADY PROMOTING A WIND FARM IN UK.
 THAT OPENS UP OPPORTUNITIES FOR SHIPBUILDING INDUSTRY.
 AND FINALLY, SPAIN HAS A POWERFUL SHIPBUILDING
INDUSTRY…THEREFORE, THE SPANISH MARITIME CLUSTER HAS
SET UP A WORKING GROUP THAT IS ASSISTING COMPANIES IN
WIND OFF-SHORE.
