Mediterranean (AO6)

BW Ideol has signed an agreement with the consortium made of EDF Renouvelables, a subsidiary of the EDF group, and Maple Power, a joint venture between CPP Investments and Enbridge Inc., to cooperate on the design of floating foundations for the AO6 floating offshore wind tender.

This call for tender relates to two sites with a capacity of 250 MW each. Combined, these two projects should produce the equivalent of the domestic electricity consumption of approximately one million inhabitants.

BW Ideol is already bringing its expertise to EDF Renouvelables & Maple Power within the frame of the South-Brittany Tender (AO5).

 

 

 

  • Capacity: 2 X 250 MW
  • Water depth: 60 to 130 m
  • Key role: Floaters' conception

This second technological collaboration with the teams of EDF Renouvelables attests to the complementarity of our respective teams and the excellent collaboration between them
