Wales
EDF Renewables is one of the UK’s leading renewable energy companies, specialising in onshore wind developments in Wales.
Our goal is to combat climate change – we are passionate about creating a net zero future where clean energy powers our lives.
We develop, build, operate, and maintain onshore wind sites and technologies throughout their lifetime.
We have an ambitious plans to develop 500MW of onshore wind playing a key role in Wales achieving net zero and in tackling the climate emergency.
Using our expertise and working with Welsh communities, our aim is to bring forward the right projects which will create a future where clean, low carbon energy is accessible and affordable for everyone.
