French renewables developer Valorem has inaugurated its first wind farm in Greece.
The 27MW Magoula wind farm comprises six Vestas V150 turbines and produces 68GWh of clean electricity per year, the equivalent to the energy consumption of 18,000 households.
Valorem said the wind farm, located in the north of the country, is also helping to avoid almost 26,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions each year.
The company has signed a power purchase agreement with Optimus Energy and Heron.
A Valorem spokesperson said: “This project would not have been possible without the commitment of our teams, both in Greece and in France.
“A huge bravo to all those who have contributed to this great success.
“Thanks also to all our financial, technical and industrial partners for their trust and support.
“This park marks a new stage in Valorem’s development internationally and in Greece, where we will continue to work for a fair, local and sustainable energy transition.”
