RWE has brought four wind farms and one solar plant into operation in France, with a combined capacity of 83 MW. Construction began in 2024 after success in the French Energy Regulatory Commission’s 2023 onshore wind and solar tenders.
The projects include three wind farms in Hauts-de-France: Catillon-Fumechon (21.6 MW, six turbines), Catésis-Bois Marronnier (29.2 MW, eight turbines), and an extension at Nouvions (19.2 MW, four turbines). In Normandy, RWE commissioned the Ormesnil wind farm (9.6 MW, two turbines). In Nouvelle-Aquitaine, the company installed 7,420 solar modules at the Les Pierrières plant (4.2 MW).
RWE is also preparing further projects in France after securing 82 MW in the 2024 onshore wind tenders.
