Total: wins 67 MWp of solar projects in France

(CercleFinance.com) - Total, through its subsidiary Total Quadran, which develops and produces renewable energy in France, has announced that it has won 67 megawatt-peak (MWp) of photovoltaic projects installed on the ground and in shaded areas.


These projects represent 20% of the volumes awarded in the eighth period of the CRE call for tenders. Total is thus consolidating its position as France's second-largest solar developer, with 606 MW of projects in all the tender periods.

Most of the sites won will be developed on degraded sites, such as quarries and former industrial sites. Three of these projects are part of Total's sites' solarisation program.

The share is down slightly in early trading (-0.5% in the first hour of trading), although is outperforming the CAC40 index as a whole (-0.9%).
