Enbridge has reached a final investment decision on its third offshore windfarm in France. Construction is slated to begin on the 448-MW Calvados offshore wind project. The project will use 64 offshore wind turbines from Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy and will be located 6 to 11 miles (10 to 18 km) off the coast of northwest France. Expected to begin service in 2024, the project will provide enough energy to power nearly 300,000 homes in the Normandy region. The Calvados project is owned by Éolien Maritime France (EMF), which is a partnership between Enbridge (via its subsidiary EIH S.à r.l) and EDF Renewables. The EMF partnership is currently constructing two other offshore wind projects in France: 480-MW Saint-Nazaire offshore wind project and 497-MW Fécamp offshore wind project.
