In the framework of the competitive bidding process for offshore wind turbines off the coast of Dunkerque, ENGIE and EDPR announce the addition of E.ON to the Dunkerque Eoliennes en Mer consortium. With the arrival of E.ON, the consortium now brings together 3 European champions of renewable energies, enriching the industrial excellence of its offer.
Together, ENGIE, EDPR, and E.ON want to make the project a strong symbol of Dunkerque’s energy transition, developed with all the region’s players. The consortium has been forging close ties with all local stakeholders for almost two years to make this project a real example of integration and support of energy transition at the regional level.
ENGIE, EDPR, and E.ON place energy transition at the heart of their strategies: between them, they operate more than 49,000 MW of renewable electricity generation capacity worldwide. With 20 years’ combined experience in offshore wind, the members of the Dunkerque Eoliennes en Mer consortium are committed to the operation or development of 19 offshore wind projects with a capacity of more than 5,600 MW.
