Voltalia (Euronext Paris, ISIN code: FR0011995588), an international player in renewable energies, reinforces its local presence in the Grand-Est region in France and announces the commissioning of Sud Vannier wind farm.

With a capacity of 23.6 megawatts, Sud Vannier project is Voltalia’s first wind farm in the Grand-Est region and the third wind farm in the North-East quarter of France after Sarry (23.1 megawatts) and Molinons (10 megawatts) wind farms.

The electricity produced will be sold to Leroy Merlin under a 23-year contract, the first Corporate PPA1 wind farm in France.

The production of this project is equivalent to the domestic consumption of about 26,000 people, approximately 15% of the population of the Haute-Marne department.
