The Spanish technological company has manufactured a new rectifier for large-scale green hydrogen production plants since October, the INGECON H2 E-lyzer. As an industry pioneer, it has supplied equipment to the world's leading electrolyser manufacturers for their initial projects. Ingeteam strengthens its leadership in the renewable hydrogen sector. In addition to the projects already commissioned in the last year and a half, it has a portfolio of over 400 MW of awarded projects to be delivered in 2024. The projects are distributed all over the world, in destinations such as Australia, Canada, the United States, Germany, Spain and other European countries. Ingeteam currently has rectifiers feeding different PEM and alkaline electrolysers in plants in Spain, Belgium and the United States, generating renewable hydrogen for different applications. Two more projects will be supplied in Spain and the United States in the first half of 2024. A new milestone will be achieved this year, with the supply of a 160 MW electrolysis project, the largest that Ingeteam has embarked upon in the sector to date. Renewable hydrogen currently enjoys good growth prospects, due to a very mature and stable hydrogen consumption market for different applications (refineries, fertiliser production, etc.), which have no decarbonisation alternatives other than using renewable hydrogen. In response to the growing demand, Ingeteam launched a new rectifier in October 2023, the INGECON H2 E-lyzer, aimed at large-scale green hydrogen production plants. The rectifier is based on IGBT technology and has the highest current density on the market. Its serial production takes place at the company's specialised power electronics factory in Northern Spain, enabling Ingeteam to achieve economies of scale and reduce the final costs of hydrogen projects. Continuing with its ambitious product roadmap for the sector, Ingeteam is already working on the next generation of rectifiers, with improved performance and a design that has evolved in parallel with market needs (higher power density, high-quality current supply, power factor controllability, etc.). To meet such demands, Ingeteam possesses the necessary knowledge, resources and human team, in addition to cutting-edge laboratories and state-of-the-art simulation tools to guarantee a power supply system that can meet the grid requirements of any country in the world, with the best energy performance. The power and control electronics required to power and manage electrolysers are becoming increasingly important in hydrogen production plants. Causing other players in the industry, in addition to electrolyser manufacturers, to attach increasing importance to how power is supplied in their projects.

The SoHyCal project has been promoted by H2B2 Electrolysis Technologies (H2B2). Ingeteam supplied the power conversion system for the electrolysers, expected to produce one tonne of renewable hydrogen a day during the initial phase currently in progress. Ingeteam has supplied its technology for the largest renewable hydrogen production plant in operation in North America. Namely the SoHyCal project, promoted by H2B2 Electrolysis Technologies in Fresno County, California, to serve public hydrogen refuelling stations in the San Joaquin Valley and the San Francisco Bay Area. In particular, this 100% renewable hydrogen production plant employs PEM electrolysis technology. The electrolyser will receive direct current from a Power Station with two rectifiers developed and manufactured by Ingeteam. The electricity consumed by this renewable hydrogen production facility is currently produced by a biogas genset. In the second phase of the project, which is expected to be developed in the coming months, H2B2 will incorporate a photovoltaic power plant on the adjacent land. At which point SoHyCal will become the largest hydrogen production plant with an isolated solar power supply, constituting a small energy hub, achieving a total production of three tonnes of renewable hydrogen per day, to supply hydrogen filling stations in the area. The project was awarded a USD 3.96M grant from the California Energy Commission (CEC) under the Clean Transportation Programme. In the words of Pedro Pajares, CEO of H2B2 USA, "The project is intended to contribute significantly to the growing demand for hydrogen, particularly in transport applications, emissions reduction and mobility decarbonisation". Harkaitz Ibaiondo, director of Ingeteam's green hydrogen business unit, stated that "this project is very important for Ingeteam, as it is our first project in North America and confirms our firm global commitment to green hydrogen".

This system, powered by renewable energy, replaces the diesel systems used to date. Ingeteam has developed and supplied the first 15 units of its Yaw Backup System to an offshore project in the United Kingdom. The company began the development of this system in 2020 to offer the market a reliable and more efficient alternative to diesel systems responsible for pivoting the nacelle on the tower when there are strong wind conditions and the wind turbine is disconnected from the electrical grid for power outages caused by weather. The system is made up of a frequency converter along with a stack of batteries that provide energy to the wind turbine so that it can withstand the extreme weather that usually occurs on the high seas, keeping the rotor aligned in the direction of the wind. The forces acting on the blades and the structure are thus minimized, avoiding possible breakdowns and significant damage to the wind turbine components. It is a sustainable solution that guarantees an instant response in adverse weather conditions, to reduce the mechanical stresses of the wind turbine by directly feeding the Yaw Backup System, thus maintaining the safety of all its components and avoiding economic losses. In addition, the Yaw Backup System also provides an emergency electrical power source to support essential loads such as control and communications, among other systems. These systems are also used in parks located in areas affected by typhoons and other adverse weather conditions. However, the increase in the size of offshore wind turbines means that they are increasingly sensitive to the loads supported and, in these situations, solutions such as the Yaw Backup System become essential. Specifically, this project located in the United Kingdom has already received and installed the first units of this system developed by Ingeteam, making it a coherent project aligned with its mission of generating clean energy by avoiding mechanics powered by fossil fuels. The energy stored in the batteries that enable the movement of the nacelle comes from the wind turbine itself, which contributes to the sustainability of the projects and makes it 100% renewable. The different phases of the project, which will be put into operation in the coming months, will use Ingeteam technology as it has already passed the initial testing phase.

The project is expected to be fully operational in 2026 and will manage 4.1 GWh of photovoltaic energy daily, helping to improve the efficiency, security and stability of the Chilean National Electricity System. Ingeteam, present in the country for over 10 years, thereby reinforces its position as a technology partner. Ingeteam has been selected by Grenergy as its technology partner for what will be the world's largest battery storage facility when in operation. The Oasis de Atacama project, developed by Grenergy in the Chilean Atacama Desert, will be built in five phases, which combine photovoltaic generation with battery energy storage. Ingeteam will provide its power conversion and control technology for the two systems (solar and battery). The agreement signed with Grenergy strengthens and reinforces the excellent relationship between the two companies. Once completed, the project will provide 1 GW of power and 4.1 GWh of storage capacity, previously unheard-of figures for battery systems. Its storage capacity equals the amount of energy consumed annually by approximately 145,700 Chilean households and will contribute to the reduction of annual CO2 emissions by more than 147,000 tonnes. The different project phases will enter operation in the next 36 months, storing clean solar energy, as all of the battery systems will be associated with solar power plants. The scope of the agreement between the two companies includes the supply of solar and storage inverters pre-integrated into the transformer stations and delivered as a turnkey solution ready for installation. Ingeteam will also supply the control system and commissioning services for the inverters, transformer stations and facilities. According to Ingeteam's battery energy storage business director, José Antonio Unanue, "Chile is undergoing a period of firm and decisive commitment to storage as a key element to maximise its use of renewable energy. More and more projects are using our technology, and we are extremely proud to help the country achieve its goals for decarbonising its economy”. Ingeteam has experienced unstoppable growth since its arrival in the country more than 10 years ago. To date, it has supplied its technology for 68 solar power plants - many being Small Distributed Generation Means (PMGD in Spanish) in conjunction with Grenergy - and for other emblematic large-scale projects such as Malgarida, San Pedro, Granja Solar, Amanecer Solar, Quilapilún, Gran Teno, Javiera and Usya. This stunning project arrives in the context of the Chilean government's firm commitment to battery energy storage technology under Law 21505, which was approved in November 2022. The law, among other aspects, seeks to promote the inclusion of renewable energy (mainly wind and photovoltaic) in the electricity matrix. Unanue also commented that "Ingeteam believes this project will make use of one of the most interesting aspects of battery energy storage systems: their ability to provide photovoltaic and wind power plants with greater flexibility, which due to their intermittent nature need to store surplus production for consumption when there is no sun or wind available".

This product will be on display at the Genera trade fair being held in Madrid from February 6 to 8. Ingeteam's range of hybrid inverters (solar + batteries), so far available only in single-phase version, is now extended with four new three-phase hybrid inverter models of 10, 15, 20 and 30 kW, all of them with two photovoltaic MPPTs (MPPT: Maximum Power Point Tracker). These models are aimed at residential, commercial and industrial self-consumption systems that combine photovoltaic generation with battery energy storage systems. The main advantage of these hybrid inverters is that two different PV arrays (for roofs with different orientations) and a battery system can be connected to a single inverter, which also integrates the Energy Management System (EMS) as standard. This makes the inverter the brain of the installation, allowing the system to be monitored at all times through a mobile application. Furthermore, although it is an inverter designed to operate connected to the grid to minimize consumption from the grid, it can also generate an AC grid to supply critical loads in the event of a power outage. The 10-kW model, which will be the first to be available on the market, can be ordered through Ingeteam's official distributors at the end of February. The first units will be available in June 2024.

In addition to wind converters and control systems, these two production centres also allow it to provide faster and closer service to its customers in terms of repairs and spare parts management. Thanks to its firm commitment to the diversification of its manufacturing activity, the company has supplied almost 13 GW of converters, control systems and wind generators for the Brazilian and Indian markets, all manufactured locally in the two countries or supplied from its other production centres. According to the Indian Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE[1]), the country's total wind power capacity has reached 44 GW, with 2,275 MW installed in 2023 alone. Ingeteam closed last year contributing 8% of the installed capacity in India. 6% of all installed wind power in the country is currently equipped with Ingeteam technology. India has ambitious targets for wind energy, aiming for 140 GW by 2030, 30 GW of which are to be offshore wind farms. The government's plan to auction 50 GW of renewable capacity annually over the next five years, with at least 10 GW of wind capacity, underlines its commitment. “2024 will be a pivotal year for India and Ingeteam’s dedication to a sustainable energy future is undeterred, promising to commit to significant growth in the years to come ", says Ana Goyén, Director of Ingeteam Wind Energy. In December 2023, Brazil was already generating more than 28 GW of power from wind farms, according to the Brazilian Association of Wind Energy and New Technologies (ABEEólica[2]). In 2023, the total installed wind power capacity in the country grew by a further 4.05 GW, with Ingeteam's market share being 12%, and a cumulative market share of 35%. “Wind energy has seen exponential growth in Brazil. In the last three years, the country broke record after record for wind farm installations. Today, wind energy, together with solar energy, is seen as the fastest growing and viewed as a key element in the energy transition, both from a global perspective and from Brazil. Ingeteam will strive to continue to provide our customers with our cutting-edge technology," commented Goyén.

Ten Spanish companies have joined forces to design and build a propulsion system based on renewable hydrogen fuel cells and install it, for the first time in the world, in a high-speed train. Grouped together in the Hympulso project, these entities will design a set of technologies applicable to the Talgo 250 'all-terrain' train, which would allow electrifying the railway network with energy generated entirely from renewable sources, even in those lines that do not have catenary. Specifically, Ingeteam will design, manufacture and test reversible high-power DC/DC converters capable of charging the batteries from the catenary. Our company is one of the five partners in the project, led by Talgo. The other four are EPowerlabs, Optimus3D, Repsol and Sener. There are also three collaborating entities (Ikerlan, Universidad Pontificia de Comillas and Tecnalia), while Adif will act as an observer. The initiative received a €6.5 million grant in January and is part of the incentive programme for the innovative value chain and knowledge of renewable hydrogen, within the framework of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan. Hympulso will have a holistic approach: it will activate the entire renewable hydrogen value chain, from generation to consumption, in the railway system. The project will also make it possible to analyse the impact that the future transition will have on the different assets of the railway infrastructure managed by Adif, such as maintenance facilities or the track itself. This will result in both mobile and stationary hydrogen fueling facilities adapted to railways and a pioneering prototype of a hybrid bimodal train for passengers with gauge change, which will be able to run on both conventional and high-speed networks, using catenary power where available, or hydrogen and batteries on non-electrified corridors. This holistic perspective is key because, in order to address the many major technological challenges posed by the adoption of renewable hydrogen in rail transport, the involvement of multiple actors at all levels, both public and private, will be necessary. The Hympulso project is part of the 'Value chain: design, demonstration and validation of hydrogen-powered mobility' call, which forms part of the SPERT (Strategic Projects for Economic Recovery and Transformation) for renewable energies, renewable hydrogen and storage (ERHA).

The PCF is calculated from the CO2 footprints of the raw materials, plus the CO2 footprints of the production processes involved, each weighted with the efficiency factors from raw material to finished product. Ingeteam's commitment to environmental transparency in the development of its products is reinforced by quantifying their environmental impact. Along these lines, Ingeteam and Grunver Sustainability have worked on the process of compiling life cycle data for the C Series central inverter for large photovoltaic and battery plants, and also for its hybrid inverter aimed at residential systems: INGECON SUN STORAGE 1Play. In both cases, data processing has been carried out to obtain the calculation and verification of the carbon footprint. This study has a cradle-to-grave scope, i.e. the environmental impact has been calculated from the extraction of raw materials to the end-of-life management of the product. More specifically, among all the parameters obtained, the study reveals a carbon footprint of 1.81E+05 kg CO2 equivalent for the central inverter and 1.48E+03 kg CO2 equivalent for the hybrid inverter for residential systems. The study was conducted according to ISO standards UNE EN ISO 14067:2019 and PCR for electric and electrical products and systems EPD Italy 007 (Rev. 3.0) and PCR ParU for Power Inverters: EPD Italy 032 of the EPD Italy type III eco-labeling system. At the end of 2023 one of its new electric vehicle chargers, the RAPID 120/180, designed and manufactured by Ingeteam, became the first Ingeteam product to have the Environmental Declaration under the Product Category Rules of the PEP Eco Passport Program.

Ingeteam will supply the converters and motors for the two silent drives and the three manoeuvring propellers, which will make the ship more efficient and quieter, guaranteeing maximum comfort on board. One of the most interesting features of the ship is that it has special solid sails that make it the largest sailing ship in the world. Ingeteam has succeeded in an order to equip what will be the world's largest luxury sailing ships. Specifically, the company will design and manufacture the converters and motors that will propel the two ships that will emulate the famous Orient Express train, enabling more ecological and sustainable navigation via the latest marine technology. The ships belong to Accor Group under the Orient Express brand, and will be built at French shipyard Chantiers de l'Atlantique. Ingeteam will supply a total of 5 motors and 5 converters for their propulsion systems. Specifically, two motors to drive the main propulsion plus the three transverse thrusters, together with the frequency converters for all of them, which will provide optimum onboard comfort thanks to their low vibration and noise. It will also develop two propulsion remote controls, to enable maximum propulsion management and efficiency with SolidSail technology. Notably, the converters will include a ground connection to the port so that the vessels can be connected to the shore power grid whilst moored and thereby avoid having to run auxiliary combustion engines to power cruise services, thus helping to reduce nitrogen, sulphur and carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere. The equipment will be manufactured at the company's facilities in the Basque Country where it has several production centres that produce its most technological products for the naval sector, which have equipped over 900 vessels to date. Details of Orient Express Silenseas Orient Express Silenseas will be the world's largest sailing ship and the benchmark ocean liner from an environmental point of view on the ultra-luxury cruise market. Orient Express Silenseas will depart in 2026 and be fully or significantly powered by the winds depending on weather conditions with a revolutionary technological design developed by Chantiers de lÁtlantique known as SolidSail: three rigid sails with a surface area of 1,500 meters each will be hoisted on a balestron rig, with three tilting masts reaching more than 100 meters high, able to ensure up to 100% of the propulsion in suitable weather conditions. This hybrid propulsion formula will combine wind power with a state-of-the-art engine running on liquefied natural gas (LNG) and plans to use green hydrogen once the technology is approved for ocean passenger ships, launching a new, more environmentally friendly vision of sea travel. When the cruiser cannot set its sails due to lack of wind, the electric propulsion supplied by Ingeteam will come into operation. Thus, the ship will be able to continue sailing without polluting and maintaining maximum comfort in terms of vibration and noise required by a vessel of such characteristics. The ship will be 220 metres long with a tonnage of 25400UMS. It will feature 50 suites, - including a monumental 900 square metre Presidential Suite - two swimming pools, two restaurants and a speakeasy bar. The singular cruise ship will celebrate the Art of Travel à la Orient Express: the quintessence of luxury, absolute comfort and dreams.

An assembly line has been set up at the company's factory in northern Spain. The first projects equipped with the new INGECON H2 E-lyzer are expected to be commissioned in the coming months. Ingeteam has accumulated 425 MW in the hydrogen business, including supplied and pipeline projects. Ingeteam has just started manufacturing the first units of a new model of power converter, the INGECON H2 E-lyzer, for feeding electrolysers. An assembly line for this equipment has been established at the company's factory in northern Spain, from where the equipment will be shipped to sites where several green hydrogen production plants are under development in Germany and Spain. With this specific solution for hydrogen, Ingeteam wants to respond to the growing market demand. The power electronics needed to power and control the electrolyzers are becoming an increasingly important part of the total cost of a hydrogen production plant. As plants grow in size and reach gigawatt power levels, it is necessary to develop economies of scale to manufacture cost- and time-optimized components and equipment. Ingeteam, thanks to a well-developed supply chain and a proven mass production line, will supply this new equipment to large electrolyzer plants, contributing to their viability and making hydrogen a competitive decarbonization solution. The new INGECON H2 E-lyzer converter has a very high current density and is capable of supplying 6,000 amps of DC for electrolyser electrolysis use. Ingeteam has also developed a solution that integrates two such converters combined with the rest of the elements on the same platform or full skid, to facilitate direct connection to the medium voltage grid, thus obtaining 12,000 amps of output current. By integrating state-of-the-art IGBT technology, the new converter ensures a very high quality DC power supply and full power factor control, thus adapting to the needs of large-scale renewable hydrogen production. The unit is water-cooled, therefore the compartment where most of the components are located has an IP65 degree of protection, and can be installed outdoors without the need for additional protection. In the green hydrogen sector, Ingeteam has a portfolio of projects, some already delivered and others pending, which currently totals 425 MW. Projects that have or will be developed in the United States, Canada, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Poland, the Netherlands and Australia. On the occasion of World Hydrogen Day, Ingeteam reaffirms its commitment to the deployment and viability of hydrogen technology, advancing on its path to consolidate its position as a leader in clean energy generation. According to the director of Ingeteam's Green H2 business unit, Harkaitz Ibaiondo, "Green hydrogen is in the initial stage, but with excellent prospects for growth in the medium and long term. We have robust and reliable technology and a committed and highly trained team, so we are very well-positioned in the market to help our customers bring their projects to fruition".   Tue, 10 Oct 2023 10:16:00 GMT f1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:3554 https://www.ingeteam.com/Pressroom/Corporate/tabid/1574/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3550/Ingeteam-expands-its-factory-in-northern-Spain.aspx#Comments 0 https://www.ingeteam.com/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=1574&ModuleID=3021&ArticleID=3550 https://www.ingeteam.com:443/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=3550&PortalID=0&TabID=1574 Ingeteam expands its factory in northern Spain https://www.ingeteam.com/Pressroom/Corporate/tabid/1574/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3550/Ingeteam-expands-its-factory-in-northern-Spain.aspx From its factory in Navarra (Spain), Ingeteam exports converters for wind turbines, solar inverters, storage systems and for the production of green hydrogen, as well as electric vehicle chargers all over the world. Ingeteam celebrated the 25th anniversary of its production plant in Navarre (Spain), where it manufactures power electronics equipment for the renewable energy sector, for green hydrogen production and electric vehicle recharging. The company also inaugurated new facilities which represent a significant increase in production capacity. With this new building, it plans to meet the growing demand in the sectors in which the company operates. The facilities mainly manufacture wind-power converters, photovoltaic inverters, electric vehicle chargers and converters for batteries and to feed electrolysers (green hydrogen). The company, whose goal is to contribute to the decarbonisation of society, in addition to manufacturing products for the renewable energy sector, has installed a 700 kW solar energy self-consumption system on the roof of the buildings to supply itself with clean energy for more than 35% of its net daily needs. The celebration event was attended by the President of Ingeteam, Teresa Madariaga; the CEO of Ingeteam, Adolfo Rebollo, with other members of the board and senior management of the company, the President of the Navarre Regional Government, María Chivite; the Regional Minister for the Department of University, Innovation and Digital Transformation, Juan Cruz Cigudosa García and the Mayor of Sesma, Pedro Mangado, among other officials. The president of Ingeteam, Teresa Madariaga, stated that "this factory is very important for Ingeteam, as it has been decisive in our growth, which is why we have maintained our commitment to it. We have every confidence in the market success of the new technological developments we will start to manufacture at these new facilities”.   25 years exporting its products all over the world The plant was inaugurated in August 1998 when it employed 30 people. This is where the first wind turbine converters were manufactured, which are still in operation today at the Perdón wind farm. With 57 GW of installed wind power capacity worldwide, Ingeteam is the world's top independent supplier of wind turbine converters. That year also witnessed the production of its first photovoltaic inverters. It has supplied over 28 GW to the solar sector for all manner of PV installations, from residential to large multi-megawatt plants. Later came energy storage associated with renewable technologies, which plays a key role in advancing the energy transition and the electrification of society. Its integration into the electricity grid of the future will bring great benefits, such as making the use of available energy more flexible and optimised, improving the quality of supply, integrating energy generated by renewable sources and ensuring grid stability and reliability. Over the past 13 years, Ingeteam has manufactured more than 25,500 charging stations for electric vehicles, AC and DC, for both the domestic market and for countries such as Portugal, France, Belgium, Italy, the USA, Latin America and other countries in northern and central Europe. In the past year, it is also worth highlighting the converters that have been used for green hydrogen, responsible for supplying direct current so that electrolysers can separate water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. The power and control electronics for electrolyser power supplies are therefore a key aspect in green hydrogen production via electrolysis, as the supply of power to an electrolyser has a major impact on its efficiency and degradation. New R&D laboratory Ingeteam employs more than 1,000 people in Navarre between its offices in Sarriguren, its power laboratory in Huarte and its factory in Sesma. These facilities will be joined by a new R&D laboratory in Sarriguren, work on which is set to begin in early 2024, set to be a leading innovator in the sector. The company is a key player in the electrification of society, as witnessed by its record order book and thanks to its in-house technology development. This firm commitment is exemplified by Ingeteam having invested 5% of its annual turnover in R&D for decades.

One of the most obvious consequences of climate change is the severe droughts that are affecting various areas of the planet. The city of Austin, Texas, and the Murray-Darling River Basin in Australia's Riverland are two examples. Fortunately, the sustainable economy provides solutions to major problems. Such as the Basque company Ingeteam, which at its Beasain facilities produces products such as pumps, motors or generators that are exported to the United States and Australia. In the first case, Ingeteam has been chosen as a technological partner in a "pioneering" project that will supply fresh water to 3 million citizens of the city of Austin (Texas), according to the company, which will be responsible for the supply of 9 Indar submersible pumping units that will guarantee the distribution of water in a "safe and environmentally friendly" way and will help to tackle the severe drought that has plagued the southwestern area of the USA in recent years. The project consists of the installation of a raw water intake on Lake Travis, located on the Colorado River in Texas. This infrastructure has multilevel intake filters connected to a tunnel through which the water will be transported to a new 550 million liter per day pumping station. The pumped water will then reach the treatment plants, from where it will be distributed to the area's population. In addition, a maintenance building will be constructed to house the chemical feed systems that will protect the infrastructure from invasive species and improve water quality prior to pumping. This regional supply solution is currently developing its second phase and is expected to start operations in early 2027. Indar pumps in Australia The second project involves the efficient use of water resources. Ingeteam will contribute to protecting and preserving the Murray-Darling river basin, thanks to the supply of an Indar pump system that will save water and make more efficient use of the area's natural resources. This irrigation project, which will be used for horticulture, will take water from the Murray River and transfer it 7.5 km to be used to irrigate a new almond plantation in the state of South Australia. In this way, Ingeteam presents an innovative alternative that will help to guarantee a sustainable future for the local communities and will help to address the increasingly pressing water shortage in the south of the country. The project has consisted of the design, manufacture and supply of 8 Indar low suction or inverter pumps that have incorporate a water-cooled submersible motor. By locating the suction system at the bottom, the equipment can more efficiently manage the water levels available during the intake process, even when these are at minimum levels. The Indar units have been designed, manufactured and tested under real operating conditions in the test bench that Ingeteam has at its Beasain facilities and will form part of the On-Farm Irrigation Efficiency Program (OFIEP) and within the Sustainable Water Use and Rural Infrastructure Program promoted by the Australian government and have recently been delivered.This is when this innovative solution with the capacity to gradually adjust to irrigation needs as the trees grow over time will be put into operation.

Ingeteam, with its Indar submersible pumps and motors designed and manufactured in Beasain, Spain, contributes to solve part of this problem; and among the numerous applications for which the submersible pumps and motors are intended are desalination plants. In this context, the six pumps and their corresponding submersible motors have been installed in the desalination plants of Alicante I and San Pedro del Pinatar I, both belonging to the Commonwealth of the Taibilla Canals, and their main task will be to take the water to be desalinated from the sea and discharge it as drinking water to the primary water network of the region, which in the summer period has more than 3 million inhabitants. The desalination plants and their operation The Alicante I desalination plant is located in Aguamarga, in the municipality of Alicante, Spain. It has a maximum production of 57,500 m³ of water per day and the treated water is fed into the New Alicante Canal (enlarged in 2006). In this installation, 2 Indar pumps manufactured by Ingeteam have been implemented with their respective motors. These water collection units will work in coastal vertical wells which usually have a high variability of water level. The second seawater desalination plant using Ingeteam technology is called San Pedro de Pinatar 1. It is designed to produce and supply the Commonwealth with a daily volume of up to 65,000 m³ of drinking water. The plant is located in the El Mojón area, near the Salinas and Arenales de San Pedro del Pinatar, in the Region of Murcia, Spain. The new units supplied will replace the 4 identical units supplied by the company in 2003.  The 6 units for these desalination plants have been supplied to Ingeteam's distributor, Juan Azcue, S.A., and are made of stainless steel, which is highly resistant to corrosion in aggressive environments such as salinity, humidity, and acid or alkaline media. Both plants take the water from the vicinity and then proceed to its treatment. Thus, the process includes a seawater pretreatment that guarantees its optimal conditions (physical and chemical); desalination as such, which is carried out by means of membrane racks; and finally, a seawater post-treatment that guarantees compliance with the criteria established for water for human consumption by the regulations in force.
