Navarre leads Europe in its use of [[renewable energy]] technology and planned to reach 100% renewable electricity generation by 2010. By 2004, 61% of the region's electricity was generated by renewable sources consisting of 43.6% from 28 [[wind farm]]s, 12% from over 100 small-scale [[water turbine]]s, and 5.3% from 2 [[biomass]] and 2 [[biogas]] plants. In addition, the region had what was then Spain's largest [[photovoltaic]] power plant at Montes de Cierzo de [[Tudela, Navarre|Tudela]] (1.2 MWp capacity) plus several hundred smaller photovoltaic installations.

Developments since 2004 have included further photovoltaic plants at [[Larrión]] (0.25 MWp)<ref>{{cite news |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070310221904/http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0OXD/is_2004_Dec_2/ai_n7635691 |title=Iberinco to Construct Solar Installation at Renewable Facility |work=Renewable Energy Today |via=[[Find Articles]] |date=2 December 2004 |access-date=24 February 2020 |archive-date=10 March 2007 |url=http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0OXD/is_2004_Dec_2/ai_n7635691}}</ref> and another at [[Castejón, Navarre|Castejón]] (2.44 MWp), also once the largest in Spain.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.energias-renovables.com/english/Contenidosecciones.asp?ID=7584&Tipo=&Nombre=News |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060928195114/http://www.energias-renovables.com/english/Contenidosecciones.asp?ID=7584&Tipo=&Nombre=News |archive-date=28 September 2006 |title=Acciona connects Spain's largest PV facility |date=21 February 2006 |access-date=24 February 2020 |work=Energías Renovables}}</ref>
