What They Do
Norvento Enerxía is a technology company and developer of energy projects with a comprehensive focus on renewable generation, storage, and electrical management systems. Their core activities include the promotion, construction, operation, and maintenance of renewable energy plants, combining technologies such as wind turbines, power converters, battery storage systems, and microgrids (source: ff4eurohpc.eu). The company designs and manufactures proprietary equipment in-house, including the nED100 and nED750 wind turbines, nGM storage systems, and nXL converters, enabling them to industrialize and market advanced technology all under one roof (source: cinea.ec.europa.eu). Norvento targets industrial self-consumption markets, solar and storage projects at utility scale, with an international presence across Europe and the Americas, notably expanding in Latin America (source: cetim.es).
Projects & Track Record
Norvento began its journey with small hydroelectric plants in Galicia, such as the Barreiro plant, later advancing into wind resource measurement and the construction of wind farms like Coruxeiras, Fiouco, and Montouto (source: ff4eurohpc.eu). In the 2000s, it incorporated biomass and solar projects, highlighting the Bioallarluz biomass plant and the Fosso dell’Oro photovoltaic plant (source: ff4eurohpc.eu). A major milestone was winning 300 MW in the Xunta’s 2010 wind auction (source: cincodias.elpais.com). In 2019, Norvento commissioned six wind farms in Lugo — Neda, Sasdónigas, Sasdónigas II, A Pastoriza, Cadeira, and Carracedo — totaling 128 MW, raising its operational capacity in Spain to 242 MW and maintaining nearly 800 MW in development both nationally and internationally (source: norvento.com). Its geographic footprint extends to the United States, Brazil, Chile, Poland, Italy, the United Kingdom, Argentina, Mexico, and Guatemala, with a current focus on utility-scale storage in Latin America (source: ess-news.com).
Recent Developments
In August 2026, the European Commission highlighted the neFO project in Lugo, a factory of approximately 23,000 square meters that will integrate design, testing, and production of clean technologies such as the nED100 and nED750 wind turbines, nGM storage systems, and nXL converters, with operations expected to begin in June 2027 (source: cinea.ec.europa.eu). In September 2026, Norvento announced its strategy to grow utility-scale energy storage in Latin America, prioritizing markets like Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Mexico, and Guatemala, supported by a €27.5 million investment from the European Commission’s Innovation Fund (source: ess-news.com). Additionally, between 2024 and 2026, it participated in the EOLIAN project to develop next-generation wind turbine blades using bio-based vitrimer composites, preparing prototype manufacturing with integrated sensors (source: pes.eu.com).
Working There
Norvento’s workforce is primarily based in Lugo, where it maintains its headquarters and offices, with job openings visible on LinkedIn covering engineering, project development, manufacturing, electrical systems, and storage technologies (source: linkedin.com).
