The Ventinveste consortium, including Galp Energia SGPS and Mota Engil SGPS affiliate Martifer SGPS, has won the Portuguese government’s 400 MW wind power tender, the company said in a statement, confirming earlier press reports. Galp said the Portuguese government notified the energy group that it was placed first in the tender. Press reports today said that Spain’s Iberdrola SA — which was placed second in the same tender — will be awarded 200 MW of installed capacity.
