Cinca cluster

The case is analyzing possible irregularities in the environmental processing of six wind farms linked to the Forestalia business group.

The judicial investigation into the authorization of several wind farms in the so-called Cinca Cluster continues to progress and has taken a new procedural step with the transfer of the case to a court in Zaragoza. One of the private prosecutors in this case is Ecologistas en Acción (Ecologists in Action ), represented by the law firm Heras Sasot Abogados.

The environmental organization warned more than a year ago of possible irregularities in the environmental permitting process for the parks promoted by Forestalia , located in various municipalities in Huesca. The investigation seeks to determine whether administrative or environmental regulations were violated during the granting of the permits, which could have criminal consequences.

Initially, the case was being investigated in a court in Huesca. There, the permits granted by the Aragonese Institute of Environmental Management (INAGA) were analyzed , and reports on the impact of the parks and their evacuation lines on protected species, such as the lesser kestrel, the Egyptian vulture, and the golden eagle, were reviewed.

The transfer to Zaragoza marks a significant step in the investigation. It allows for the centralization of the case and the monitoring of potential liabilities of both the developers and those responsible for granting authorization , broadening the scope of the proceedings. According to published reports, the process remains open and in the preliminary investigation phase, with technical and administrative documentation still pending analysis.

Undoubtedly, this move represents progress in the defense of the claims of Ecologists in Action , represented by Heras-Sasot Abogados , regarding the correct application of environmental and administrative regulations in Aragon, in a case that has generated a wide debate on the impact of renewable energies in Aragon and amidst the numerous investigations surrounding Forestalia and possible links with former officials of the regional government that are coming to light in recent days.
