04.01 Renewable energy sources
With a population of 636,924 and 240,000 homes,
Navarra is a world benchmark in the production of
clean energy, mainly wind power.
The region covers 4,023 square miles (2% of the
surface area of Spain).
Since 2000, Navarra has stopped emitting 25
million tons of CO2, to the atmosphere thanks to
production from renewable energy sources.

04.03 Energy and Employment:
The new companies created in the sector have generated an associated industrial fabric
of around 100 companies and over 5.000 jobs. They contribute 5% of the region’s
Gross Domestic Product.
This new economic sector is characterized by the fact that it creates specially-skilled
jobs that have high added value.
At present, a number of companies located in Navarra are leading the wind park
development sector (Acciona Energía, Eólica Navarra-Grupo Enhol, Gamesa Energía,
Natural Gas-Fenosa Renovables and Iberdrola) and wind turbine/component
manufacturers) Acciona Windpower, Alstom Power (Ecotecnia), Gamesa Eólica,
Ingeteam and M. Torres).
After consolidating their presence in Navarra many of these companies have
undertaken a process of international expansion.
