Energiequelle subsidiary commissions wind farm in France

Earlier this year, Energiequelle’s French subsidiary, P&T Technologie, commissioned the Le Ménec wind farm in the municipalities of Trévé and Loudéac. The wind farm is located in northwestern France, on the Côtes d’Armor in Brittany. The six new Nordex N-117 wind turbines now complement the three wind farms previously constructed by P&T Technologie in the area, which the company also manages. The wind farm increases the installed capacity in the region to 51 MW, which covers the electricity requirements of around 36,000 households per year.

Christoph Biger, Site Manager at P&T Technologie, is proud of the successful commissioning: “Together with local service providers, we were able to build the wind farm on schedule. After Bourbriac, it is now the second wind farm that we have connected to the grid in France within a few months.”

These six turbines increase the total installed capacity of P&T Technologie in France to 242 MW. The Saint-Morand wind farm with a total of 9.4 MW is also scheduled for commissioning in 2023.
