The company designs, manufactures and operates own wind turbines. Headquartered in Barcelona, Ecotenia is Spain's second-largest turbine manufacturer. Since April 1999, the company has formed part of Mondragon Corporation Cooperativa (MCC). It is fundamentally a manufacturer of wind turbines, but frequently, in response to its clients' needs, it complements this activity with the 'turnkey' construction of the complete wind farm. The company also offers its services of operation, maintenance and exploitation of wind farms, if the client requests them. It possesses the certificate issued by Germanischer Lloyd Certification GmbH of Hamburg, which testifies that its Quality Management System complies with the requirements of the DIN EN ISO 9001 standard. This certificate covers all of the activities inherent to the construction of a wind farm in an integral manner: from the phase of engineering and analysis of wind-power potential to the operation and maintenance of the plant, including the design and manufacture of the wind turbines themselves, and the design and construction of the necessary infrastructures. Its business structure has grown significantly in recent years; as of 2007 it has a production capacity of wind turbines of 500 MW/year, distributed between the models of 640 and 750 kW of power. The company has two wind turbine assembly plants in As Somozas (A Coruña) and in Buñuel (Navarra), and it is building a manufacturing plant for wind turbine towers in Miranda de Ebro (Burgos), representing in total a constructed surface area of 20.500 sq. m. It also has work centres in Andalusia, Catalonia, the Canary Islands and Galicia. It also develops wind farms in collaboration with various companies, notably Vendaval SA, in which it participates together with other companies of MCC. In the international field, it is present virtually all over the world, either directly or through MCC; specifically, it has carried out installations in India, Cuba and imminently in Japan. In other countries it is carrying out promotional activities in collaboration with local companies, including Hitachi Zosen (Japan), INVAP (Argentina) and IHLAS (Turkey), due to their commercial capacity and market development potential.
