The EFGL Project is a partnership between Ocean Winds & Banque des Territoires. 

This project is composed of three 10MW turbines on floaters designed by Principle Power’s (WindFloat®). With several key innovations slated for demonstration at EFGL project, and thanks to an incremental de-risking process, the EFGL project allows this technology to reach its 3rd generation, before for mass deployment. 

The project is located in specific Mediterranean climate, one of the windiest area in France, with an average wind speed close to 10m/s, as well a challenging level of turbulence intensity. 

Currently under construction, the project is at the forefront of industrial structuring of the floating wind energy sector along the entire French Mediterranean coast. 

Located inside the Gulf of Lion Marine natural park, the project involves local stakeholders to improve environmental knowledges. It includes very specific devices and environmental assessments such as birds and bats detection. Its eco-friendly design will also include the implementation on one floating structure of fish nurseries units.
