07 Jun 2022: Four months after having passed the stage of the Final Investment Decision, Ocean Winds and the Banque des Territoires has just signed all the financing contracts for the EFGL project. EFGL sets up bank financing, without recourse, from the construction phase, with the European Investment Bank, international banks Crédit Agricole CIB (CACIB – France, also financial advisor), KfW IPEX-Bank (Germany) , Mizuho Bank (Japan), Banco Santander (Spain), and the Danish export credit agency EKF, in addition to the support of the Future Investments Program (PIA) operated by ADEME – now within the framework of France 2030. Main supply chain contracts have also been finalised with RTE, Eiffage Métal, Vestas, JDR/SDI, Euroports, Principle Power. After the supply of materials, which is in progress, will follow the manufacture of the sub-assemblies of the floats and the wind turbines which will then converge, mid-2023, towards Port-La Nouvelle for their final assembly. Next will come the preinstallation of the anchors and the offshore towing of the wind turbine-float assemblies for launching at the end of 2023.
