In the first quarter of 2017, we will reach 413 MW and 12 plants in the UK, country in which we have the largest installed capacity to date. The strong relationship with the local communities continues. Kingsburn, as all our UK plants, will contribute to a Community Fund that will finance a number of relevant initiatives for the local community.”
