Inalsa could have known the error of the measurements between mill and mill, and therefore correct it so as not to be left out of the wind power tender, by using the computer application that the Canary Islands Government made available to applicants to self-evaluate the projects they presented. This has been assured by the general director of the Ministry of Industry, Adrián Mendoza, who considers that the responsibility lies with the public water company.
The aforementioned computer program, called ITC, is "an application used by many promoters of wind farms", according to Mendoza, "to measure the wind energy index in a park". Likewise, the general director of the Ministry assured that, had Inalsa used this program, they could have corrected the error; a possibility that Plácida Guerra, CEO of the company, claimed not to have.
In this regard, Manuela Armas, president of the Cabildo of Lanzarote, added that Inalsa did use the ITC and the program did not reveal errors in the measurements. In fact, the president reaffirmed that the measurements were correct.
The PP has also commented on the outcome of the tender. The island president of the party, Astrid Pérez, has described the project presented by Inalsa as a "botch" and has considered that the exclusion of the public firm "implies a loss of significant income for the town councils, which in their day ceded the public land in favor of Inalsa".
