ERG Eolienne France has signed an agreement to acquire a 75% interest in two French wind farms totalling 16.25MW from local company Vent d’Est for €12.9m.
The projects are the 12MW Voie Sacree wind farm, which has been operating since 2007, and the 4.25MW Epense facility, operational since 2005.
The remaining 25% is held by Renvico France, ERG said.
The acquisition, which is expected to close by the end of the year, will bring ERG’s installed capacity in France to 270MW.
ERG and Vent d’Est also agreed to co-develop up to 300MW of new projects in France.
