The Dominican Corporation of State Electrical Companies (CDEEE) signed the first contract to purchase wind energy from a company that will form part of the Interconnected Electric System (SENI) within 18 months.

By signing the contract with Grupo Elico Dominicano represented by Wilfredo Gonzalez, executive vice president of CDEEE, Celso Marranzini explained that incorporation of renewable energy to the country's electrical system was an historic event.

He explained that 34 megawatts will be produced by the windmills, which will be acquired by the CDEEE under the Development Incentive for Renewable Energy Sources and Special Schemes .

Meanwhile, Grupo Elico Dominicano said that the company wanted to find new investment projects in the Dominican Republic, to produce renewable energy.

In February last year, President Leonel Fernandez announced the start of a project initiated by Grupo Elico Dominicano, a subsidiary of Spanish company, Inveravante, to invest 132 million euros in two wind farms, one in Peravia and another in Montecristi, to produce 50 megawatts of power.
