The Spanish Government has finally rejectedthe project of the Itsaraz wind farm , which the company Statkraft de Orvegia planned to build in Aramaio and Eskoriatza.
Gipuzkoa's Deputy General and Deputy for Sustainability, José Ignacio Asensio, has stated that the project "did not meet the necessary environmental requirements".
At the beginning of this year, the Ministry for the Ecological Transition issued a negative environmental report on the project, which has now been followed by the decision of the Spanish Government.
