ARIES INGENIERA Y SISTEMAS

offers a large range of integrated
engineering services for the energy
generation industry, as well as advanced owners
engineering and technical advisory for large energy
projects. ARIES combines these capabilities with a
strong investment in Research and Development (R+D).
This allows for innovative technological developments
that improve the energetic efficiency of concentrated
solar energy plants, or the efficiency of CO
2
capturing
systems. ARIES features an all-purpose team which
guarantees quality in the development of any project.
The firms engineers have the experience to tackle the
complex regulations that affect these types of projects.
The commitment, the efficiency, and the effectiveness
of the professionals at ARIES has been demonstrated in
the development of photovoltaic plants, concentrated
solar power plants, wind parks, hydro, conventional
cogeneration, combined cycle and nuclear plants. With
an international portfolio of advanced renewable
energy projects ARIES brings industry leading
experience in the analysis, design, and EPC of
groundbreaking renewable energy facilities. The results
are solutions that improve operational efficiency,
manage price risk, increase security and reliability, and
create valuable markets for tradable credits. Our
objective is to offer innovative ideas and technologies
that cost-effectively harness renewable energy
resources wherever they are applicable.

PHOTOVOLTAIC
ARIES, being the first company in Spain to reach non-recourse project finance of a solar PV project
in Spain (ARSOL 1-5MW), is a pioneer in utility scale photovoltaic power generation and has
developed 40 MW of PV power plants. In these projects, ARIES maintains a majority ownership
and has completed the EPC tendering process and supervision of the construction, start-up and
O&M of 15 MW (with 2-axis tracking system). Furthermore, ARIES has performed engineering
works on more than 1025MW of PV solar power plants all around the world. ARIES does the basic
and detailed engineering, construction, commissioning and O&M supervision.

CONCENTRATED SOLAR POWER
ARIES is a top CSP expert presently developing 500 MW of CSP power projects in Spain, 150MW
are already under operation. As a leading engineering company in CSP technology, ARIES has been
involved in the main CSP projects worldwide comprising parabolic trough, central receiver and
Fresnel technologies. ARIES has acted as owners engineer and technical advisor in these projects
for top-tier international industrial players such as ACWA Power in more than 1700MW of CSP
developments. ARIES is at the forefront in CSP applications developing add-on solar field in to an
existing conventional power facilities and integrating solar steam generation for industrial
purposes.

WIND
ARIES has more than 15 years of experience in the wind sector. Having developed services such as
feasibility studies, wind resource evaluations, concept engineering, installation management,
consultancy in O&M and due diligences in over 4800MW wind farms, ARIES plays the role of
technology expert, remaining agnostic and keeping ahead of the technologies improvements and
evolutions. Our vast experience in the wind sector with the main players: wind manufacturers,
utilities, banks and particular clients around the world, positions ARIES as the leader in the market
guaranteeing customer satisfaction in every single contracted project.

HYDRO
ARIES has been involved actively in the hydro energy program developed in Spain working closely
with IDAE, the Spanish Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving. ARIES has provided
engineering and project management services in several hydro power plants of very different
power outputs. Thus, ARIES has acquired a deep expertise and know-how managing hydro projects
of various sizes and site conditions. On top of that, ARIES has also gained relevant experience in
main equipment procurement processes and contract negotiations, as well as in the coordination
and management of the different subcontractors involved in a hydro project, from site evaluation
and selection to power plant commissioning.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
ARIES is developing its own proprietary technologies, having innovation as the basis of its
philosophy. Therefore one of the major departments of the company is R&D+i. The company
places the research and development as a core strategic element in its growth. To this end ARIES
collaborates closely with universities and research centers of great prestige such as the Consejo
Superior de Investigaciones Cientficas (CSIC) and IK4-Tekniker in Spain and with international
centers as Deutschen Zentrums fr Luft-und Raumfahrt (DLR) and the Eidgenssische Technische
Hochschule Zrich (ETH Zrich). At present ARIES is focused on developing a variety of
components for CSP plants providing solutions to reduce the costs of energy.
