SA announced on Friday that its environmental transition-focused unit, along with a consortium of investors, has acquired a stake of up to 32% in a 127-megawatt portfolio of wind farms in .

The transaction was completed by a fund managed by Credit Agricole Transitions & Energies, though the purchase price and vendor details remain undisclosed.

The portfolio consists of 11 assets situated in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comte, Grand Est, and Hauts-de-France regions of eastern and northern France.

Collectively, these wind farms are capable of generating approximately 250 gigawatt-hours of electricity, which can power around 43,000 homes annually.

The company aims to achieve 2 gigawatts of installed renewable energy capacity by 2028 as part of its commitment to financing renewable energy projects and supplying clean electricity.
