Voltalia wins 70 megawatts of new wind projects in France
Voltalia (Euronext Paris ISIN code:
FR0011995588), an international player in renewable energies wins
both projects it presented at the 7th call for tenders launched by
the French Government. A 100% success rate for Voltalia in France
on call for tenders for wind projects after
Argenteuil-sur-Armançon and Sarry.
70 megawatts spread out over two
clusters
The first project called « Rives
Charentaises » is located both in the Charente and Vienne
departments (Nouvelle Aquitaine Region). The cluster is made of 19
wind turbines totalling 38 megawatts of installed capacity with 14
megawatts winner of the last call for tenders (20-year power sales
agreement) which comes on top of 24 megawatts eligible for the
regulated tariff (20 years). Crowdfunding solutions are also being
considered for this project. They will allow local citizens to
invest in the project, especially to finance the last studies
before the start of construction.
The second project called « Laignes »
is located in Côte d’Or (Bourgogne-Franche-Comté Region). The
cluster is made of 10 wind turbines totalling 32.4 megawatts of
installed capacity with 14.4 megawatts winner of the last call for
tenders (20-year power sales agreement) which comes on top of 18
megawatts eligible for the regulated tariff (20 years).
The completion of the « Rives
Charentaises » project will contribute to Voltalia’s 2023
ambition, while that of Laignes will take place later.
Reinforced competitiveness
This success was achieved in the seventh period
of the French onshore wind call for tenders launched by the
Ministry for the Ecological Transition. It highlights the expertise
of Voltalia’s teams in developing competitive projects. Voltalia
already stood out in the last wind call for tenders by winning two
projects, in Argenteuil-sur-Armançon, 24 megawatts, and in Sarry,
22 megawatts, both located in the Yonne department
(Bourgogne-Franche-Comté Region), within a 30 kilometres’ distance
from the Laignes cluster which will therefore benefit from
economies of scale for its maintenance.
« These two new successes confirm the tenacity
of our project development teams in spite of the current
instability as a result of the sanitary crisis » commented
Sébastien Clerc, Voltalia’s CEO.
