Environmental review begins for 300MW Peru wind project
Empresa de Generación Eléctrica Quercus submitted environmental documents for the 300MW Quercus wind project in Peru.
Madrid-based Ignis controls the special purpose company behind the proposed plant, which would be built in the northern region of Lambayeque.
A preliminary environmental evaluation (EVAP) was filed with the environmental certification service for sustainable investments (Senace).
An EVAP is used to determine whether an environmental impact assessment, a semi-detailed environmental impact study or a detailed environmental impact study is required.
The wind farm would comprise 50 turbines, cost US$435mn, take 30 months to build and include a battery energy storage system.
The project would connect to the national grid at Red de Energía del Perú's 220kV La Niña substation via a 37.5km transmission line from a substation at the plant.
Power grid coordinator COES has already approved Quercus' pre-operational study.
There are currently no wind farms in operation in Lambayeque, but BNamericas is tracking 13 such active projects in the region.
