le cluster maritime français<br />
One of the main players in renewable energy, La Compagnie du Vent is a subsidiary of GDF SUEZ and the French<br />
pioneer in its speciality: wind energy.<br />
Its aim is to produce clean renewable energy in a socially responsible manner. It has installed 243 onshore wind turbines<br />
with a total output of more than 236 megawatts and is currently developing the “Deux Côtes” offshore wind farm<br />
project in the Channel. This 141 turbine project, with a total output of 705 megawatts, will be located more than 14 km<br />
off of the Picardy and Haute-Normandy coastline and will generate enough electricity to cater for the needs of almost<br />
900,000 people.<br />
La Compagnie du Vent closely monitors developments in other marine-based renewable energy sources and is ready to<br />
participate actively in their development.<br />
Enertrag<br />
Enertrag is a European IPP (independent power producer) specialising in sustainable energy. Enertrag currently operates<br />
more than 400 wind turbines with an installed capacity of over 720 MW and annual generation of 1.5 billion kWh,<br />
covering demand by approx. 1.5 million people. Its core business is financing, installing and operating wind farms.<br />
Enertrag France has been chosen by the French Ministry of Industry to carry out the first offshore wind project in<br />
France (Côte d’Albâtre).<br />
Nass & Wind Offshore<br />
Nass & Wind Offshore is a subsidiary of Nass&Wind Group, a French holding company set up in 2001 by Peter Nass<br />
and his wife Nathalie <strong>Le</strong> Meur to develop renewable energy projects. It is dedicated to developing offshore wind farms<br />
on the coasts of France. Nathalie <strong>Le</strong> Meur and Peter Nass have decided on the dual strategy of developing offshore wind<br />
farms with fixed foundations in shallow water and then floating offshore wind farms in deep water. The aim of this<br />
original strategy led by a unique developer is to generate a minimum of 1.000 MW from marine wind power by 2020,<br />
representing around 15% of the target set by the French government.<br />
Valorem<br />
A pioneer in the development of renewable energy projects (wind, photovoltaic, methanisation, marine renewable<br />
sources), Valorem also generates green energy. From development through to operation of its projects, Valorem's aim is<br />
always to extract maximum value from the natural resources.<br />
Offshore, Valorem installs wind farms and is an active partner in establishing an offshore trial site for wave energy<br />
recovery systems in the Pays de la Loire region.<br />

Solar energy cannot penetrate the dark depths of the ocean. To replace it, bacteria use hydrogen sulphide<br />
as a source of energy (oxidation).
