BW Ideol has signed an agreement with EDF Renouvelables and Maple Power, a joint venture between CPP Investments and Enbridge, to co-operate on the design of floating foundations for France’s AO6 floating offshore wind tender
The call for tender relates to two sites in French waters in the Mediterranean with a capacity of 250 MW each. Developers were required to submit preselection documentation by 23 May 2022.
BW Ideol chief executive Paul de la Guérivière said, “This second technological collaboration with EDF Renouvelables and Maple Power comes after our initial co-operation within the framework of the Bretagne Sud call for tenders (AO5).
“It attests to the excellent collaboration between the team members. Once tenderers who have been successfully preselected have been announced, BW Ideol is ready to work alongside its partners to submit the best possible offer.”
The call for tenders was launched by French Prime Minister Jean Castex on 14 March 2022, a month after French President Emmanuel Macron announced a target of 40 GW of offshore wind by 2050.
