Per Pedersen, CEO of Repower, said: "As before, France remains one of the most important wind markets in Europe and we are delighted to be bringing together for the first time the long-standing experience of Eole-Res and the expertise of REpower.
"So far we have set up almost 400 turbines with a total generating capacity of some 750MW in various French regions and wish to expand our position here even further in the future."
