The French pioneer in wind energy, La Compagnie du Vent, GDF SUEZ Group is today vital to the renewable energy sector, thanks to its diversification into photovoltaic solar energy production.

Its objective is to produce, in a socially responsible manner, clean, green renewable energy. La Compagnie du Vent looks for new sites, communicates with the people concerned, develops new projects, finances them, builds the necessary installations and takes care of their day-today running.

La Compagnie du Vent builds power stations in France and abroad for both itself and third party operators. It owns and runs 23 windfarms in France with, at the end of 2012, a total output of 290 megawatts.

It has also initiated the ‘Deux Cotes’ offshore windfarm project off of the Normandie and Picardie coastline, and develops it alongside with GDF SUEZ Group. In Morocco it has built more than 60-megawatts worth of onshore wind turbines for third parties.

La Compagnie du Vent is committed to a promising diversification into photovoltaic solar energy, with a building-integrated plant and a solar power plant already installed. Microalgae and macroalgae bioenergy production constitues two main growth path for La Compagnie du Vent.
