Champagne Picarde wind farm project
Initiatives to restore the habitats of two protected bird species
Wind power, an inexhaustible source of energy based on the traditional use of wind, produces electricity without emitting greenhouse gases. This technology has now matured from a technical and financial viewpoint.
A wind farm is often the starting point for a much larger project in a local area designed to boost the local economy. Both in France and internationally, EDF Renewables is committed to jointly building its projects together with local players and authorities. As a result of the activity, jobs and tax revenue they generate, wind farm projects often help to bring sustainable energy to local areas.
Because environmental protection and biodiversity conservation are among our main priorities, we’re committed to identifying, understanding, assessing and achieving proficiency in the environmental challenges related to our facilities. Our expertise guarantees that measures suited to the local context are put in place at each stage in the life of a project, from design to decommissioning.
EDF Renewables specialises in designing and running onshore wind farms. Proof by example…

The energy produced by the farm is equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of 30,000 inhabitants, or nearly 40% of the population of Lozère
