Emobi Industries, which is consolidating a project at a high national level for the manufacture of wind towers in the Industrial Estate of La Llanada de Ponferrada, ends the year in the middle of the manufacturing process of the five sections that make up the prototype of the approval process with General Electric , with which last February it signed an adhesion agreement together with Capital Energy and Sodical for the supply of towers for its onshore wind farms in the region.


The approval process is, thus, at 80% consolidation, which it intends to complete completely in the next month of March 2023. These parts, which will have exhaustive control by GE, and subsequent ones that will be manufactured Based on this prototype, they will remain in the La Llanada field until, foreseeably, the month of August, the date on which it is estimated that the first order for towers from the electric giant will leave the factory.
