Contrary to what might have been thought in the past, the wind power it is not simply a technology of the future. In fact, it is proving to be a reality in the present, with a significant growth and an increasing adoption throughout the world and also in Spain.

The Bornay company, leader in the small wind power sector in Spain, has positively assessed the latest data on the production of renewable energy. According to Red Eléctrica figures, in the first quarter of the year, renewable energies accounted for 53% of the total energy consumed and, for the fifth consecutive month, the wind power has been the leading sourcewith a production of 6,718 GWh and a market share of 27.9%.

Bornay, who has been manufacturing and distributing wind turbines and products for self-consumption of electricity for more than 50 years, has highlighted that wind energy is one of the most usable forms of renewable energy for the future, but that it is also already present as the basis of our energy for large companies and also for many homes. For this reason, the company supports all active policies to promote this energy and make it a way of moving towards a just ecological transition.

Small wind power is already present in Spanish homes

Wind energy is not only for large facilities or companies, but it can be at home and be the perfect complement to solar energy. The small wind farm is made up of installations for electrical self-consumption that have a small wind turbine connected to regulators, inverters and batteries, which allow the storage of renewable energy to optimize the consumption of an electrical installation, whether in a home, a company or an isolated place. .

Juan de Dios Bornay, CEO of Bornay, stated that: “What people do not know is that in places far from urban centers such as isolated houses, urbanizations or districts, domestic wind turbines can be installed for comprehensive and sustainable self-consumption. This is partly because small wind still doesn’t exist in the face of politicians or regulations”.

Currently, in Spain, there are more than 12,000 Bornay wind turbines installed in all Spanish provinces. Juan de Bornay: “We carry out more than 200 installations a year in Spain. Communities such as the Balearic Islands or provinces such as Cádiz or Zaragoza have, within Spain, a great demand for the equipment that Bornay manufactures, due to the intensity of the winds in those territories. Another great demand occurs in isolated sites anywhere in the world, where the wind turbine, together with solar panels, can offer energy independence anywhere in the world.“.

The company has indicated that its Wind+ wind turbines are ideal for this type of installation, as they offer high performance, a long useful life and easy maintenance. In addition, Bornay has an online tool called B-planner that allows you to size the most appropriate installation for each case and request a personalized quote. With this tool, the user can enter his specific data and obtain a detailed report with the most profitable solution for him. The price of energy is much more affordable with these renewable installations and the investment in the equipment is amortized in a few years.

Bornay has stated that it is committed to the development of wind energy in Spain and that it offers innovative and sustainable solutions to contribute to the energy transition and care for the environment. The company has recalled that it has extensive experience in the sector and that its products are present in more than 70 countries, highlighting countries such as Peru, Chile or Mexico, in which different installations have been carried out, both for official organizations (army, observatories , etc.), as well as for companies and private homes.
