Who we are and what we do
We’re one of the UK and Ireland’s leading renewable energy companies, specialising in wind power, solar and battery storage technology.
We develop, build, operate and maintain wind farms and other renewable technologies throughout their lifetime.
We have an operational portfolio of 36 wind farms – including two offshore wind farms – and one of the largest operational battery storage units in Europe.

Our renewable energy sites
Use our map to find out if there’s a wind farm or renewable energy site near you. You can look up both existing and development sites.
You can also find out how we develop a wind farm – from site selection and scoping, through to planning, construction, and operation and maintenance.
What is wind power?
Wind power is a type of renewable energy that uses the power of the wind to generate electricity. Wind turbines can be located onshore or offshore.
The UK is particularly well suited to generating power this way because we’re the windiest country in Europe.
What is solar energy?
Solar energy can be harnessed with relatively simple technology to provide low carbon, renewable electricity. Solar power is becoming an important part of the UK’s renewables energy mix.
The local community
We work closely with the communities surrounding a wind farm, so you feel heard and know what to expect during its construction, and benefit from its long-term development. Find out how a wind farm could provide education and skills for local people, and fund infrastructure improvements.
Supporting education and skills
We help teachers and educators bring the science curriculum to life. Visit one of our wind farms, take part in a workshop, or download learning resources on renewable energy to use in the classroom.
Find out more about EDF's award-winning schools programme, the Pod, for students aged 4-16 years old too.
