en.Wedoany.com Reported - Ocean Winds has completed the installation of the first turbine at the Dieppe Le Tréport offshore wind project in France. Located off the coasts of Le Tréport and Dieppe, this French offshore wind project has a total installed capacity of 500 MW and is being developed and delivered by Ocean Winds as the lead shareholder.

The Dieppe Le Tréport offshore wind project plans to install 62 Siemens Gamesa wind turbines. Following the completion of the first turbine installation, power generation is expected to commence within the coming weeks. Once fully operational, the project is projected to meet the annual electricity needs of approximately 850,000 people. Sumitomo Corporation of Japan and Banque des Territoires of France are also shareholders in the project.

This year, Ocean Winds is also advancing several offshore wind projects in France, including the commercial operation of the 500 MW Noirmoutier offshore wind project and the first power from the 30 MW Golfe du Lion floating offshore wind project. As the 500 MW French offshore wind project enters the turbine installation phase, offshore construction, turbine lifting, submarine cable connection, and operations and maintenance preparations will continue to progress.
