FINERGREEN

Finergreen is delighted to share that we supported Technique Solaire in signing its first Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) in France with one of the world's leading airlines, Air France. The 20-year PPA will cover a volume of more than 13 GWh/year, representing around 10% of the total annual consumption of Air France's buildings. As part of this PPA, electricity will be generated by two ground-mounted solar power plants. Located in the Haute-Vienne department in France, the first plant has an installed capacity of 5 MWp, and the PPA around this facility will come into force in 2025. The second 6 MWp park, located in the Vienne department, will be commissioned by 2026. Finergreen is proud to have advised Technique Solaire at all the transaction stages, including strategic advisory, origination, and structuring of the PPA, and to contribute to advancing the development of schemes that enable corporates to source renewable solar energy at a stable, competitive price over the long term.

The long-awaited Olympic Games in Paris are just days away! At Finergreen, all eyes will be on Marseille. Why? Because it will host the sailing competition where Lauriane Nolot, a professional kitesurfer and two-time European and World champion, will represent France. With her immense potential, Lauriane could make history in her sport, which is included in the Olympic Games for the first time! Lauriane embodies a new generation of athletes who represent perseverance, excellence, humility, and youth—values shared by our team. Finergreen is proud to have supported her journey through the "Pacte de Performance," a program designed by Fondation du Sport Français to promote social and professional integration through sports, enhance health awareness, and advocate for sports inclusion for people with disabilities. Good luck and bon vent to Lauriane! 🌊
