Empowering communities.

Protecting wildlife.

We are committed to supporting local communities near our wind farms by investing in schools, youth sports, and community wellness.

Protecting Biodiversity:
We rigorously monitor the impact of our wind farms on local bird species in Uruguay through independent scientific studies. These efforts focus on both general bird populations and the protection of vulnerable species such as the black-chested buzzard-eagle, loica pampeana, black-and-white monjita, and straight-billed reedhaunter.

To further safeguard endangered birds, we have implemented advanced monitoring systems and an on-demand turbine shutdown protocol to minimize the risk of collisions, particularly for the black-chested buzzard-eagle.
