Boralex is pleased to announce that two wind power projects, totalling 125 MW, have been selected as part of the tenth round of the “PPE2” wind tender launched by France’s Energy Regulation Commission (CRE). 

  • With 13% of the total awarded capacity, Boralex ranks first among the selected developers.

I’m extremely proud of our teams at Boralex for the outstanding work they’ve accomplished. Once commissioned, these projects will deliver competitive, locally sourced renewable energy and will directly support the reindustrialization of their host regions. More broadly, they will contribute to France’s energy security
