This great result once again reflects the strength of our strategy, made possible by our experienced team and the quality of our project pipeline.'

A diversified portfolio

The seven awarded projects will add 35 wind turbines across four regions in France—Centre-Val de Loire, Grand Est, Hauts-de-France, and Normandy - further enhancing the geographical diversity of RWE’s development pipeline.
