Construction started for 27.2 MW Onshore Wind farm in France
SSE Renewables has commenced the construction works on the 27.2 MW Chaintrix-Bierges and Vélye Wind Farm in Marne département, France.
The wind facility consists of eight Siemens Gamesa SG 3.4-132 wind turbines, each with a capacity of 3.4 MW, contributing to a total renewable energy output. The delivery of this project represents a substantial capital investment exceeding EUR 30 million (USD 32 Million) by SSE Renewables.
The Balance of Plant works are being executed by the primary contractor Omexom in collaboration with the civils contractor Pothelet. Several other suppliers, including Vodafone, Dekra, Elys, Groupe Geotec, and Auddicé, have been engaged to support the project. Siemens Gamesa has been selected as the wind turbine supplier for the project. This project aims for commissioning by the end of 2024. Upon completion, the wind farm is anticipated to generate sufficient low-carbon energy throughout its expected 35-year lifespan to power over 14,000 homes annually.ss
