R & D ACTIVITIES
Spanish Manufacturers R&D priorities
(Renewable Energy Plan 2005-2010)
• Advanced systems to control the quality
of the power fed into the grid.
• Development of wind turbines with unit
power outputs of more than 2 MW.
• Adaptation of high-capacity wind turbines
to offshore applications
• Implementation of demonstration
offshore wind farms
R&D Activities: National Gov. Programs:
• CENIT Projects (Large Projects lead by Industrial Consortiums)

Strategic R&D Plan
Project PSE-MiniEólica
Promotion of the Technology for Small Wind
2007 - 2011
Organization of MINIEÓLICA Project:
Three working areas are differentiated by targets:
First Area: Product Development
This area is focused on the support to the manufacturers in the development of their new products. Each line is leaded by
one manufacturer which will be helped by technological research centres and private companies. New designs will cover
the needs of the market in the power range between 20kW and 100kW.
Second Area: Technical Development
Breaking technological barriers and propitiate the technological development in key areas for SWT sector are the main
objectives of this area. Those activities must be lead by technological R&D Centres and only in some cases by private
companies. Technology research for medium-term application is attended in this area.
Third Area: Activation of the SWT sector and support infrastructure development
The objective of this area is the promotion, dissemination, sensitization and info collection for the SWT sector. Also in
order to promote and adequate development of new products and business associated, a new infrastructures are needed,
services has to be established (f. i. certification test facilities). A new called “minieolica sector” is pursuable.

CENIT WINDLIDER 2015
•
Windlider 2015, is an industrial research project led by Spanish turbine
manufacturers Gamesa and Ecotècnia. Its objective is to keep Spain at the
cutting edge of wind power technology. Specifically, the project involves the
design of new high-power machinery. Windlider 2015 has received a €13
million grant, almost half of its €28,5 million total estimated investment
requirement.
The project’s objectives are the following:
•
•
•
•
To perfect design process of future turbines, reducing “time to market” and increasing
maturity of the first series, considered vital to leading the market as of 2012
To boost Spanish-owned enabling technologies
To create a holistic simulation model that reproduces as faithfully as possible the behavior
of future turbines and determine the effect of new configurations, new enabling technologies
and other factor on turbine performances
To deploy several mid-sized technological-scientific infrastructures in Spain that permit
experimentation in scales up to 5 MW with complete turbine prototypes and critical
components (generators, gearboxes, converter, chasis yaw, etc.)
CENIT EOLIA
OBJECTIVE. Development of all technologies to permit the installations
offshore in deep water ( more than 40 m.)
- Several research activities are included in the project:
-Energy field ( wind energy and electricity)
-Sea technologies ( aquaculture, desalination)
-Civil works
-Ship technologies
- Total budget 33.9 MEuros (public subsidy 16.7 MEuros)
- Duration of the project 2007-2011.
- More than 16 companies and 25 Research centers
- Project leader: ACCIONA

Instituto Tecnológico y de Energías Renovables S.A., ITER,
was founded by the Cabildo Insular de Tenerife, the island's
administrative authority. It was aimed to cover the need of
starting a new research field in the islands to reduce the
exterior energy supplying dependence and allow a cleaner
and sustainable development.
