Renewable energy is being generated from all eight turbines at the Chaintrix-Bierges and Vélye Wind Farm, which started construction in September 2023.
The €30 million (£24.8m) project, which supported 80 construction jobs during peak delivery, is expected to help reduce emissions by 27,000 tonnes annually.
Delphine Henri, France Director, SSE Renewables said: “Reaching full operations at our Chaintrix-Bierges and Vélye Wind Farm is a fantastic moment for SSE Renewables and marks the disciplined delivery and completion of SSE’s first operational asset in mainland Europe.
“To deliver the project on time and on budget is a testament to the hard work of all involved and I’d like to thank all our employees and our construction partners for their efforts”.
