Ocean Winds has begun assembling the first wind turbine for the Éoliennes Flottantes du Golfe du Lion (EFGL) floating offshore wind project, developed in partnership with Banque des Territoires.
The 10 MW Vestas turbine has been installed on its floating foundation at the offshore wind terminal constructed by the Occitanie Region at Port-La Nouvelle. The remaining two turbines will be assembled in the coming weeks before being towed 16 kilometres offshore from Leucate and Barcarès for installation.
