Neoen, a French renewable energy producer, won four solar projects totaling 104.4 MWp as part of the tender. The projects include three agrivoltaic initiatives involving the integration of sheep farming with solar power generation, and the fourth project, the expansion of an existing solar farm. Neoen has so far acquired a total of 475.5 MWp of solar and wind projects in 2020, which should cover the electricity needs of at least 50,000 people in France when completed. How is Neoen Modernizing French Renewables? Neoen has established itself as a leading renewable energy producer in France, investing heavily in projects that can generate large amounts of electricity. The four solar projects won in the tender are expected to generate enough electricity to cover the needs of at least 50,000 people. Neoen has also invested in the integration of sheep farming with solar power generation, also known as agrivoltaics. The agrivoltaic projects are expected to help reduce the environmental impact of the farming industry while still producing significant amounts of renewable energy. Neoen is also expanding an existing solar farm, which will further increase France's renewable energy capacity. Neoen is investing in the development of innovative technologies to further optimize the efficiency of their projects, such as advanced tracking systems and AI-based forecasting methods. Neoen has also partnered with local businesses and municipalities to ensure that their projects are tailored to local needs and maximize economic and environmental benefits.

Neoen has started work on the largest battery in the Nordics, the Yllikkälä Power Reserve Two (YPR2), near Lappeenranta, Finland. Nidec will have the overall responsibility for the 54MW/112.9MWh lithium-ion two-hour battery construction project and has already provided the battery containers, cells and inverters. It will be connected to Fingrid’s Yllikkälä substation and is expected to be operational in the first half of 2025. The battery will be used to provide Findgrid with fast-response ancillary services to balance production and consumption, ensuring the security and frequency of the power system. Neoen owns 100% of Yllikkälä Power Reserve Two and will be the long-term operator of the asset. The YPR2 is the third battery project in the Nordics for Neoen, who are a leading owner and operator of batteries globally, with a portfolio of 1489MW/3032MWh in operation or under construction. The development has been praised by Fingrid President and CEO Jukka Ruusunen, who said batteries are an excellent source of rapid flexibility and will significantly increase the supply of Fingrid’s reserve markets. Lappeenranta’s Acting Mayor Tuomo Sallinen has also welcomed the investment, which supports the city’s ambition to be a European leader in renewable energy and electricity storage solutions. Neoen Chairman and CEO Xavier Barbaro said the company is committed to accelerating the deployment of large-scale and long-duration batteries to enable a clean energy future.

Neoen, the leading renewable energy and storage developer in Australia, has seen its latest quarterly revenues crimped by a combination of the transition of its biggest solar farm, the 400 MW Western Downs, to a fixed price contract and a fall in battery revenues after a bonanza period in 2022. The company posted a 8% drop in its 3rd quarter revenues to €120 million, although its nine-month revenues still looked strong with a 12% lift to €397.5 million. Neoen is currently building the 412 MW Goyder South wind project in South Australia, 4 big battery projects, and has a landmark 219 MW/876 MWh battery in Western Australia. It has become the first company to have more than 3GW of renewable capacity operating in Australia, and is targeting 10GW of capacity in operation or under construction by 2025 with Ebitda of more than €700 million. What Impacted Neoen's Quarterly Revenues? The transition of Neoen’s biggest solar farm, the 400 MW Western Downs, from a variable to a fixed price contract impacted the company’s quarterly revenues. The Western Downs project was Neoen’s biggest solar farm, creating a significant portion of the company’s overall revenue. The transition from variable to fixed prices resulted in decreased quarterly revenues for Neoen. A decrease in battery revenues after a bonanza period in 2022 also impacted Neoen’s quarterly revenues. Battery revenues had been strong in 2022, but decreased in the subsequent quarter, contributing to the 8% drop in Neoen’s 3rd quarter revenues. Despite the decrease in quarterly revenues, Neoen’s nine-month revenues were still up 12%, indicating a successful year overall. Neoen is currently working on a number of projects that should help increase its revenue base, such as the 412 MW Goyder South wind project in South Australia and 4 big battery projects. The company is aiming to have 10GW of capacity in operation or under construction by 2025, with an Ebitda of €700 million or more.

Neoen has actually signed a corporate power purchase agreement (PPA) with French network driver TDF for 62MW of capacity from two solar farms. Under the 15-year agreement, from 1 January 2026, TDF will purchase the electricity and guarantees of origin produced by the Salernes (16.8 MW, department of Var) and also Boussès (45.1 MW, department of Lot et-Garonne) solar farms. Building and construction of both solar farms, established by Neoen in discussion with the city governments and also stakeholders in the respective locations, will start in 2023, with commissioning of the Salernes solar farm scheduled for 2024 and also Boussès to adhere to in 2025. The company PPA will allow TDF to secure a supply of green power for a substantial part of the electricity intake of its telecommunications as well as audio-visual broadcasting sites. The Boussès solar farm will certainly also entail the restoration of a degraded forest environment with lots of infected trees (gap formation, wood-boring beetles, Fomes rot). Under a forestry settlement scheme, 86.2 hectares of healthy trees (including hardwoods) will be grown in the division of Lot-et-Garonne-- two times the location that will be cleared. Guillaume Decaen, Neoen's French Growth Supervisor, France, stated: "We are delighted to reveal the finalizing of our very first business PPA in France and we wish to say thanks to TDF for the trust they have placed in us. " The stamina and deepness of our portfolio of projects supply a solid foundation for our expanding passions in the company PPA market.". Olivier Huart, Chairman and also Chief Executive Officer of TDF, claimed: "We are proud to embark on this flagship collaboration with Neoen, a key French player in renewable energy. " Optimising our energy usage and including new resources of power supply are concern locations for decreasing our carbon footprint.".
