RWE has secured two contracts in French for an 11MW onshore wind project and a 4MW solar project.
The contracts were announced as part of the latest technology-neutral call to tender for hydro, wind and photovoltaic projects by the French CRE (Commission for the Regulation of Energy).
The solar farm is located in the French department of Charente-Maritime and covers an area of four hectares. The three-turbine onshore wind project will be located in the Loire-Atlantique department.
RWE is currently the third most awarded company across the 13 French onshore wind power tenders held by the CRE and has been awarded all recent onshore calls for tenders in which it has participated.
Katja Wunschel, CEO RWE Renewables Europe & Australia: “I’m proud of this result, which demonstrates our ability to consistently come up with new, competitive projects to accelerate the development of renewable energies in France. Our ambition seamlessly aligns with our results, as demonstrated by the high quality of our projects and the dedicated teams driving them forward.”
