EDF & Maple Power pick BW Ideol design for half-gigawatt French floating wind bid

EDF Renewables and the Maple Power joint venture between Canada’s Enbridge and CPP Investments have signed an agreement with BW Ideol to cooperate on the design of floating wind foundations for the upcoming French floating wind tender (AO6).

The candidates have already submitted their pre-selection filing for the two sites with 250MW capacity each in the Mediterranean that should produce enough power for one million French consumers.
