AREVA Renewable
AREVA is strongly committed to renewable as part of its strategy to provide its customers with innovative, environmentally friendly sources of energy. The Renewable Energies business unit was formed at the end of 2006 to:
broaden the group's offering in technologies for CO2-free energy production and in particular to offer decentralized energy supply;
become a significant player in wind power and bioenergies by participating in their rapid industrial development; and
develop hydrogen energy and bring fuel cell solutions into commercial production.
Our operations cover three fields: wind energy, bioenergies and hydrogen energy.
Wind power
We are developing high power turbines that convert the wind's motive power into electricity. In October 2007, we acquired a 51% stake in Multibrid, a German manufacturer of offshore wind turbines.
Bioenergies
AREVA Bioenergies, a branch of AREVA Renewable, has a solid experience in the biomass sector having designed and built more than 100 biopower facilities in Europe, Asia and South America with capacity of more than 2,500 megawatts.
