EDF Renewables is a pioneer and a major player in onshore and offshore wind energy in France and around the world. Onshore wind, traditional business activity, has been a main growth driver for the past 15 years. We develop and operate wind farms in 18 countries.

Project quality is determined during the development phase, which can last several years. EDF Renewables builds on consultations to develop projects in the interest of local authorities.

EDF Renewables India develop, build, and operate Renewable power plant and have a decade of experience in India.

EDF Renewables plays a leading role in the emergence of this new industry, having gained several years of experience by developing projects in Europe. The mature offshore wind technology makes it possible to install wind turbines on the seabed in large projects that take advantage of strong and steady winds. The development of this competitive industrial sector helps diversify the energy mix and drive economic growth.

Steadily, in the course of several projects, EDF Renewables has built extensive experience covering the full range of existing technologies and put together dedicated teams.

Global expertise in designing, developing, and constructing Storage Projects

EDF Renewables has now developed two energy storage sites: the Toucan solar plant in French Guiana (5 MWp) and the McHenry project in the United States (20 MW power, 40 MW dynamic capacity), an innovative storage system combining an energy storage battery and a computerized control system. These two projects mark a step forward in the development of new renewable energy applications.

To develop these innovative projects, EDF Renewables builds on the expertise of its dedicated EDF Store and Forecast subsidiary, which was set up in 2014 and has developed a smart software solution to coordinate generation from renewable sources via forecasting and energy storage.

To prepare the future, EDF Renewables identifies other technologies and selectively invests in projects.

Offshore floating wind
Offshore floating wind is a promising new solution with the potential to expand the scope of offshore wind turbines. For several years, EDF Renewables has been supporting the development of this technology through the Provence Grand Large project, a pilot wind farm in the Mediterranean.
