[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]An exponential growth of the offshore wind power is predicted in Spain and Europe in the future. The goal set by the European wind energy association, WindEurope, is to reach 450,000 megawatts of offshore wind energy in Europe by 2050, which would mean that Spain would build 85 wind farms over the next 30 years.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Galicia there are five <\/span>large port infrastructures<\/b>, which serve as the basis for the opening of the region to the outside world. Galician shipyards can contribute to the manufacture and exportation of machine support structures, wind turbines and offshore electrical substations installed for offshore wind energy projects in Northern Europe. The lower manufacturing costs compensate for<\/span> the greater distance to the wind farms with respect to local shipyards, and therefore ensure the competitiveness of the Galician supply.<\/b>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Offshore: Great opportunities<\/b><\/h2>\n

The opportunity it represents for Galicia and other areas of Spain lies in its extensive kilometers of coastline where to install wind farms that would exploit this type of clean, renewable energy at a low economic and environmental cost. In addition, it <\/span>would mean the refloating of a large number of Galician and Spanish companies that are part of this industry<\/b> with the creation of a large number of direct and indirect jobs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Metal companies foresee a growth of 8% during 2021<\/b>, which will alleviate a drop in turnover of 22% that has occurred during 2020 as a result of the pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n

Galicia<\/strong><\/p>\n

Empresas como Iberdrola y Greenalia y otras firmas del metal se est\u00e1n fijando en la frontera de Portugal, Punta Langonsteira y la costa de Lugo para asentar nuevos parques e\u00f3licos flotantes<\/strong> y aspiran a fondos europeos para su financiaci\u00f3n.\u00a0 La dilatada experiencia por medio planeta de la l\u00edder de las renovables en Espa\u00f1a, le permite jugar con ventaja en la nueva era abierta al viento del mar como fuente de energ\u00eda.\u00a0 Muy pendiente de estos avances se encuentra por supuesto, el sector del metal en Galicia que lleva a\u00f1os reivindicando que no se puede dejar escapar este tren a pesar de que los detalles exactos todav\u00eda se encuentran cerrados bajo llave.<\/p>\n

Companies such as<\/span> Iberdrola, Greenalia and other metal firms are looking to the border of Portugal, Punta Langonsteira and the coast of Lugo to establish new floating wind farms<\/b> and they are seeking European funds for their financing. The extensive experience throughout the world of the leader in renewables in Spain, allows it to play with a great advantage in the new sea wind era. Very aware of these advances is, of course, the metal sector in Galicia which knows that this train cannot be missed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ferrolterra<\/strong><\/p>\n

The local government of Ferrol takes a step forward and believes that the region’s industry not only has room for improvement in this sector, but can also encompass new activities, completing the entire value chain on the high seas, such as submarine power cable or the construction of vessels. The mayor of Ferrol has shown his interest on financing this project with european funds and to create a specialised offshore wind power department.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”]\n READ ARTICLE<\/span>\n <\/a>[vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_single_image image=”9802″ img_size=”full”][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Ecological transition<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Interesting initiatives are taking place thanks to the ecological transition and the European Union itself has committed to reduce emissions by 55% by 2030. This is the way forward to achieve a more sustainable and energy efficient development.<\/span><\/p>\n

Acebron Group\u00b4s commitment is not only\u00a0to <\/span>offer solutions to<\/b> most of the sectors of technological machining of parts of different sizes and materials. We go one step further and within our activities, <\/span>we include the repair of components<\/b> in the wind, railway, hydraulic, naval, capital goods or machinery sectors, <\/span>providing a second life<\/b> to these highly valuable elements.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_single_image image=”9806″ img_size=”full”][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
