Wind Industry Profile of
Boralex to commission new wind farm in France
The wind farm is located in the communes of Saint-Saturnin and Préveranges and consists of 4 Nordex N117 wind turbines, each with a capacity of 3 MW. The wind farm will produce 22.5 GWh of green energy annually for approximately 11,000 French households.
"Electricity needs are rising steeply as we move away from fossil fuels. Competitive, mature and rapidly deployable, wind and solar are the only energy sources capable of supporting this societal and energy transition through to 2030. Built in 10 months, the Préveranges wind farm is already making a concrete contribution to France's low-carbon strategy. It is the second Boralex wind farm to be commissioned in 2023," said Nicolas Wolff, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Europe at Boralex.
This is Boralex's 6th wind farm in operation in the Centre-Val-de-Loire region, where the Company's production now covers the annual consumption of more than 110,000 people in the region. In France as a whole, more than 1 million people now benefit from Boralex's green electricity production. The commissioning of Préveranges brings Boralex's installed capacity in France to 1,210 MW and its total capacity
worldwide to 3,029 MW.
