The Eoliennes en Mer des îles d’Yeu et de Noirmoutier (EMYN) consortium, comprising Ocean Winds, Sumitomo Corporation, Banque des Territoires and Vendée Energie, has reached the final investment decision for the Îles d’Yeu and Noirmoutier offshore wind farm in France and thus moved the project into the construction stage.
The first offshore operations will take place this summer before the construction work begins next spring with the installation of the monopile foundations, the offshore substation and the first subsea cables. The wind turbines will be installed in 2025 and the offshore wind farm is expected to be commissioned in the second half of the same year.
