La Caleta Wind Farm

La Caleta wind farm is located in San Bartolomé de Tirajana (Gran Canaria Island), where Ecoener has more parks in operation, Llanos de la Aldea, San Bartolomé, El Rodeo y La Casillas 1.

The seven wind turbines that make up the park have the tip of the blades painted in red, thus helping birds not collide with the wind turbine.

In addition, infrared cameras and illuminators have been installed in three wind turbines in order to reduce the risk of collision of the most sensitive birds; It is a state-of-the-art system, TrackBird, which avoided wind turbines when it detected birds by targeting them. Also, this device will be able to work at night, to protect the species that make night movements.

This park has been co-financed with FEDER funds, this aid is first call for investment aid in wind power technology production facilities located in the Canary Islands and promoted by the European Union, under the motto A way of making Europe.
