Spanish energy giant Iberdrola’s PERSEO program & FCC Servicios Medio Ambiente’s subsidiary FCC Ámbito have launched EnergyLOOP to lead the recycling of renewable installation components, one of the biggest medium- and long-term challenges in the sector. This initiative will also contribute to the energy transition and boost the circular economy in Spain.The initial objective will be the recovery of wind turbine blade components, mostly glass and carbon fibres and resins, and their reuse in sectors such as energy, aerospace, automotive, textiles, chemicals and construction.To this end, the new company plans to set up Spain's first blade recycling plant in Navarre.The facility will be located in the south of the region, a strategic location due to its proximity to some of the country's leading wind farms and with good connections to other regions with abundant wind farms.The project has the support of the Government of Navarre, as it is a strategic activity that positions the region at the forefront of the renewable energy sector by introducing technological innovation and circularity components and is aligned with regional smart specialisation.
