EgeHaina power company announced the start of construction of a 48.3-MW wind farm in southwestern Enriquillo, in Barahona province. 14 wind turbines will be installed next to the existing 49.5-MW Larimar wind farm inaugurated in March 2016. Further to the south, EgeHaina also operates the large Los Cocos Eolic Park in Pedernales. EgeHaina operates three wind farms and one solar (in San Pedro de Macorís), adding 128.5 MW of clean energy to its portfolio.
EGE Haina’s general manager Marcelo Aicardi said that once the project is in operation, the company will have invested more than US$400 million (EUR356.6m) in renewable energy in the Dominican Republic.
