NTR has entered the French renewables market with the acquisition of two wind projects together comprising just under 20 MW and with a total capital investment of over €35 million (US$40 million). NTR’s second sustainable infrastructure fund, NTR Renewable Energy Income Fund II, acquired “Bricqueville”, an 8.8 MW project from RES and “Saint-Pierre-de-Juillers”, a 10.2 MW wind project from BayWa r.e.
The 8.8MW Bricqueville project is located in the Normandy region of France in the department of Calvados and is entering into production. Once fully operational, it will produce enough clean energy to power approximately 4,000 homes. This project is powered by four Vestas V100 turbines.
The 10.2MW Saint-Pierre-de-Juillers project is located in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France, in the department of Charente-Maritime, and is producing enough clean energy to power over 7,000 households. The project is powered by five Senvion MM92 turbines.
