Provence-Grand-Large, a world first

Located the south of France, Provence-Grand-Large is the first floating pilot wind farm in the Mediterranean sea. 

Comprised of three 8.4MW Siemens-Gamesa wind turbines installed in water depths of 100 meters, the project marks the inaugural use of TLP-type floaters anchored to the seabed with tension-leg mooring lines.

The project will have a capacity of 25 MW. It will produce the equivalent to the annual consumption of a town of 45,000 in habitants.

A global actor with a local commitment

EDF Renewables is a long term actor which establishes 30 to 40 years in a territory for each project.

  • We develop, build and operate offshore projects, that implicates a strong consultation with harbor and maritime actors, before, during and after the construction phase.
  • Consultation with professional fishery and vessels starts from the very start of our projects.
  • We are committed to the creation of local supply-chain. In total for our first three offshore wind farms in France, 7,000 jobs have been created.
  • We manage the decommissioning of all of our projects. Today, 90% of turbine’s weight is reused or recycled.
